Security Council Unanimously Approves New North Korea Sanctions --- ## Transcript Thang hung as usual Chichen de kimchi usual We got very close last month when the United States put forward a strong and balanced resolution that would have been adopted. If not for Vito's by Russia and China. And honestly, I think many had given up hope that we would ever speak on this conflict. But that's exactly what we just did we got this done because most of us worked constructively in good faith to adopt a resolution and I want to thank Malta and other members of this Council for leading this initiative. At the top, I want to say that I'm horrified that a few members of this Council still cannot bring themselves to condemn the barbaric terrorist attack that Hamas carried out against Israel on October 7th. What are they afraid of? What is stopping them from unequivocally condemning the actions of a terrorist organization that is determined to kill Jews and that gun down civilians Sprint families alive and executed children a group that killed and took hostages including children from over a dozen countries, including the United States. There's no excuse for failing to condemn these acts of Terror. I know it's hard to see that brighter future in this moment of darkness, but we must we have to It breaks my heart that we will never be able to bring back the children who have lost their lives. Or race the trauma Israeli and Palestinian children living under this conflict are experiencing. as we speak Palestinian children are fleeing the fighting and Gaza crying out for help. As we speak is really children, including a three-year-old American are being held hostage by Hamas. And it's really children have been displaced from their homes, which are also under rocket attack. Colleagues for this generation of children and for the Next Generation we have a responsibility. Just strive for a brighter future for them. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"U.N.
