The extent of US isolation at the UN has been driven home by formal letters from 13 of the 15 security council members opposing Trump administration attempts to extend the economic embargo on Iran.
The letters by the council members were all issued in the 24 hours since the US secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, came to the UN’s New York headquarters to declare Iran in non-compliance with a 2015 nuclear deal.
Under that deal (the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA), comprehensive UN sanctions on Iran would be restored 30 days after the declaration. But almost every other council member has issued letters saying that the US has no standing to trigger this sanctions “snapback” because it left the JCPOA in May 2018.
The US has said it is still technically a participant because it is named as one in a 2015 security council resolution endorsing the JCPOA. The argument was rejected by France, the UK and Germany even before Pompeo made his declaration.
Since then, Reuters reported that it had seen letters from Russia, China, Germany, Belgium, Vietnam, Niger, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, South Africa, Indonesia, Estonia and Tunisia, all rejecting the US position.
Only the Dominican Republic has yet to issue a formal letter on the subject. Last week the Caribbean state was the only security council member to back the US when it tried to extend an arms embargo on Iran. Pompeo visited the island two days after that vote.
Council members who normally consider themselves US allies on most issues said they would have supported Washington if a compromise had been found, in which the arms embargo could have been extended for a limited time period. The defeat of the US resolution on the embargo led directly to Pompeo’s legal gambit to try to snap back UN sanctions.
Diplomats at the UN said the depth of US isolation was in part a reflection of the abrasive style used by Pompeo, who accused Europeans of choosing to “side with the ayatollahs”, and the US ambassador to the UN, Kelly Craft, a political appointee.
“The Americans were actually being over the top in their ridiculousness,” one diplomat said.
“The underlying point here is that most countries on the security council basically agree with the US that Iran is not a nice country and it having nuclear weapons and more arms is not a good thing,” the diplomat said. “But the Americans misplayed their hand so often, so aggressively, that they isolated themselves from people not on policy, but on just being unpleasant.”

The whole worlds people stands 4 square behind iran
we all know its the israeli warmongers who are pushing for this
and the americans dont have the balls to say NO
It looks like the Jew World Order is ready to replace the USA as capital of the United Nations.
Since WW2 the capital of the UN has been the UN headquarters complex at Jew York City. Now, the Jews Media often talks about changing the World Reserve Currency from the US dollar to something else.
Jerusalem may be where the banksters will have their next world capital. Just as the jews renamed the League of Nations to the United Nations, they may also rename the United Nations to some other name when they replace the US dollar with some other global currency.
Ongoing government overthrows in Belarus, Lebanon, Mali, etc, moving the world capital from the USA, COVID, riots, changing the world reserve currency from the US dollar, are signs of an ongoing shake-up in the world’s governments.
The world is going through big changes as the banksters try to set up their Jew World Order.
Americans should be extremely concerned about the US domestic and foreign policies.
The US is thrashing around with unnecessary wars here and there, unjustified sanctions against people and organizations all over the world, and a Satanic central bank that has RUINED the middle class and most of the rest of the US population. Today, the US is like a dying, yet still dangerous wild animal. DARK times are near for the USA.
Oh wait! Don’t tell me! You forgot to add:
“God bless Amerika!”
O say can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
And what was that?
Pompeo’s fat gut overflowing whatever furniture they find big enough to hold his fat ass!!!
Unfortunately this isolation was long foretold, and it’s going to get even worse.

Pompeo is a jerk and a Christian fundamentalist who believes in one God, a God that sits on his shoulder telling him what to do. Rednecks exist in Washington.
The disconnect here is that the prime states against Iranian sanctions know that if Iran is pushed too hard, Israel becomes more at risk. Pompeo doesn’t see this or if he does see it, he doesn’t care, because Amerika is ‘exceptional’ with God on its side.

Me thinks you give too much “actualizing credit” to any of the puppets in the District of Criminals. Please spell America with a “c” when you reference we the people, not “persons”, legal fictions, the “we” living men and women on the land and soil of this continent.
The US, Incorporated — several times with similar names regrettably not trademarked in the era formulated! (see http://www.annavonreitz.com for details up the Wazoo — might best be spelled AmeriKa, as I spell out the “State of California [incorporated]” as Kali’s Fornication!
Pompeo IS A CRYPTO JEW (see Aangirfan for further details)
Biden is a crypto jew FACT…..his wife surname is JACOB.
The Jews in the NZ are about to blanket NZ with unremitting hysteria about the trial/sentencing of the mosque massacre criminal.
NO MENTION WILL EVER BE MADE ABOUT THE INADVISABLE IMMIGRATION POLICIES WHICH HAS RESULTED IN THE FRACTURING OF NZs IDENTITY.
The NZ media AND advertising agencies are totally controlled by THE JEWS…..there is NO diversity of opinion on immigration….NONE.
The USA Israel and the UK will be destroyed soon by communist forces the Jewish cabal is history.The communists are so overwhelming in power right now the us with it’s sitting duck 50 year outdated aircraft carrier force is easy picking for Iranian Russian Chinese Korean mini subs armed with stealth nuclear torpedoes and sea surface scramjet missiles.Its game over for the west soon.Worldwide communism to follow soon the Cabalists will be persecuted as will the Aryan bloodline.The west has created an enemy of the east through many years of opression.The East will hit back soon and hard.Iran is in alliance with Russia and Russia with China and China with North Korea it’s time the USA forgoes it’s tyrannical treatment of the East or else it will be too late.The adversaries of the USA and Israel are so immensely powerful today I would not want to be in either country right now.Times have changed.The Cabalists are driving Israel the Us and the UK into destruction, with these 3 powers removed communism will rule worldwide unhindered and it’s easy for these 4 powers to accomplish very very easy within 24 hours.And they will do it soon.Judgement starts at the Lord’s house and then the gentiles will be judged.
The Cabalists believe that enabling the destruction of Israel and their allies, the west, will force the hand of their Messiah to come down and usher in his kingdom, unfortunately for these idiots this is not going to happen as their Messiah never existed.The only true Messiah is Jesus Christ whom they crucified 2000 years ago.Bunch of dimwits.Would love to see their faces when they get dragged into Chinese forced labour camps after they themselves enabled the destruction of the west, their only protectors.
