The Conservatives have voiced disappointment at the US decision not to support a UN resolution condemning Russia's war against Ukraine – even though it was co-sponsored by the UK.

In a major policy shift, the U.S. joined Russia in voting against a UN resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine. The resolution, backed by Ukraine and European nations, called for Russia’s withdrawal. The U.S. instead introduced a rival resolution that did not label Russia the aggressor. European allies criticized the move, warning it weakens global security. This comes as the Trump administration explores talks with Moscow.
