At the United Nations Security Council, a Bahraini-backed resolution aimed at coordinating international efforts to protect commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz was vetoed by Russia and China, preventing its adoption. The proposal came amid rising concerns over the safety of one of the world’s most critical maritime corridors, which carries a significant share of global oil shipments. The veto reflects broader geopolitical divisions among major powers, particularly over how to address escalating tensions in West Asia. While some members supported collective measures to safeguard maritime traffic, Russia and China raised objections to the draft, effectively blocking consensus.
