WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump on Wednesday threatened to cut off financial aid to countries that vote in favor of a draft United Nations resolution against his decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel`s capital.
“They take hundreds of millions of dollars and even billions of dollars, and then they vote against us. Well, we`re watching those votes. Let them vote against us. We`ll save a lot. We don`t care,” Trump told reporters at the White House.
The 193-member UN General Assembly will hold a rare emergency special session on Thursday at the request of Arab and Muslim countries on the controversial US decision.
