India has expressed hope that Palestine's bid for full UN membership, blocked by the US last month, will be reconsidered. The US vetoed a UN Security Council resolution that received 12 votes in favor, with Switzerland and the UK abstaining. The resolution required nine votes and no vetoes from permanent members to pass. India's statement comes after the US vetoed a draft resolution recommending Palestine's admission to the UN. The move has been seen as a setback for Palestine's statehood aspirations. India has maintained its support for the Palestinian cause and hopes for a peaceful resolution.
