United Nations votes on Nazi resolution

 

 

A resolution in support of condemning the growing Nazi movement across much of the west passed despite pressure from the US-UK-EU to vote it down.

Check out the voting results. 

The resolution expresses concern about glorifying Nazism, neo-Nazism and former Waffen SS members, and condemns the construction of monuments and the holding of public ceremonies honoring the Third Reich. Introducing the resolution, the Russian delegate referenced an increase in xenophobia, anti-migrant sentiment, Islamophobia and anti-Semitism, among other forms of discrimination.
