In a strong show of condemnation for President Trump, 128 countries, including some of the US’s most trusted allies, voted in favor of a UN resolution calling for a reversal of Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital. Only nine countries voted against it, which speaks volumes about America’s declining influence at the UN considering that Trump and US Ambassador Nikki Haley had threatened to cut aid to countries who criticized the US and funding to the UN itself, writes Zeeshan Aleem in Vox. Also telling of America's growing isolation within the UN is that in lieu of support, 35 allies only abstained from voting. That the vote was overwhelmingly against the US, even after such an aggressive campaign from the Trump administration, shows America’s dwindling leadership.
