The Palestinian government slammed as "unacceptable" Monday an American veto of a draft UN resolution against President Donald Trump's decision to recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
A spokesman for Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas said the veto was "unacceptable and threatens the stability of the international community because it disrespects it".
The 14 other countries on the Security Council voted in favour, but US Ambassador Nikki Haley exercised the American veto.
