The resolution would have made Palestine
the 194th member of the United Nations. .
Deputy Ambassador Robert Wood stressed to the
Security Council that the U.S. veto of the resolution... .
... “does not reflect opposition to Palestinian statehood
but instead is an acknowledgment that it will only
come from direct negotiations between the parties.”.
Similarly, deputy State Department
spokesman Vedant Patel said that the U.S. has...
... “been very clear consistently that premature actions
in New York — even with the best intentions — will
not achieve statehood for the Palestinian people.”.
In response to the failed vote, Palestinian U.N.
Ambassador Riyad Mansour told the council that
the decision would not deter the Palestinian people.
The fact that this resolution did not
pass will not break our will and it
will not defeat our determination, Riyad Mansour, Palestinian U.N. Ambassador, via Associated Press.
We will not stop in our effort.
The state of Palestine is inevitable.
It is real. Perhaps they see it as
far away, but we see it as near, Riyad Mansour, Palestinian U.N. Ambassador, via Associated Press

Tesla Sales Drop , More Than Expected.
The automaker has posted its first yearly drop in sales since the onset of the pandemic, CNN reports. .
The company reportedly built
433,000 units but only delivered 387,000.
That's significantly less than the 484,507 vehicles
it delivered in the last three months of 2023.
Tesla shares fell 5% on April 1. .
Tesla partially attributed the sales
drop to increased production of the
updated Model 3 at its factory in Fremont.
The company also cited factory shutdowns caused by ships being diverted from the Red Sea because of attacks by Iran-backed Houthi militants, CNN reports.

Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives
referred to Tesla demand in China as
"very soft coming out of the gates for 2024.".
While we were anticipating a bad first
quarter, this was an unmitigated
disaster that is hard to explain away, Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives, via note to clients.
We view this as a seminal moment
in the Tesla story for Musk to either
turn this around and reverse the
black eye first quarter performance. , Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives, via note to clients.
Otherwise, some darker days could
clearly be ahead that could disrupt
the long-term Tesla narrative, Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives, via note to clients

The Pentagon confirmed that its forces intercepted "dozens of missiles" and drones launched from various locations including Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen, aimed at Israel.
