Opposition figures in Bangladesh sought to stoke anti-India sentiments, particularly as Sheikh Hasina secured her fourth consecutive term in office, bolstering her close ties with India. After months of silence, Prime Minister Hasina has launched a full-scale offensive against the opposition's "Boycott India" campaign.

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... .
... âdoes not reflect opposition to Palestinian statehood
but instead is an acknowledgment that it will only
come from direct negotiations between the parties.â.
Similarly, deputy State Department
spokesman Vedant Patel said that the U.S. has...
... âbeen very clear consistently that premature actions
in New York â even with the best intentions â will
not achieve statehood for the Palestinian people.â.
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
