France, UK Back Voluntary Veto Restraint at UN Security Council

France and the UK have endorsed a voluntary restraint on veto use in the UN Security Council during humanitarian crises, with 128 states now supporting the initiative. The proposal, an update of the 2015 French-Mexican plan, aims to prevent paralysis in cases of genocide and war crimes without amending the UN Charter. However, divisions persist among the P5, with Russia, China, and the US not committing.
