In early April, Palestinian UN Ambassador Riyad Mansour wrote a letter to UN chief António Guterres asking for the motion, which had already been tabled in 2011 but failed to be adop...

The General Assembly can admit a new member state with a two-thirds majority vote, but only after the Security Council gives its recommendation. Regional bloc t...
