UN General Assembly to debate US Jerusalem move on Thursday
The United Nations General Assembly will debate Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital on Thursday at 10 a.m. Eastern Standard Time.
The body is expected to overwhelming pass a measure condemning the move. General Assembly resolutions have no legal binding.
The debate will come after a Security Council resolution criticizing the move was vetoed by the US on Monday.
