The BBC says that the U.S. may not veto a Security Council resolution that is critical of Israel’s expansion in East Jerusalem:
During their talks, [Qatar Foreign Minister] Sheikh Hamad asked the US official whether Washington would guarantee not to veto a UN Security Council resolution that was critical of Israel’s ongoing settlement construction in East Jerusalem.
The diplomat said the US official had replied that the current feeling in Washington was that they would “seriously consider abstention”.
