jerusalem. so james, let's talk about the un human rights council meeting. does it look like it's going to pass that resolution on an investigation? well, we don't know the answer to that question. it's not going to vote yet. we would think he would come to a vote about now we think now probably maybe some time during this hour. remember, this is to set up a new commission of inquiry been commissions of inquiry before the word, an ongoing, independent commission of inquiry starting from april. this year with no end date, which is interesting. the problem i think with the commission of inquiry and with much of the un human rights architecture, is israel doesn't really cooperate. there's a special report, for example, for the situation human rights situation in the bi territories. and israel doesn't let him in the let him do any investigations, a tool. so there is a potential problem that, but there's one thing somebody does different this time around. and that's that these are not just human rights reports that are going to be filed and put on the library she

like the recognition of jerusalem as israel's capital and the relocation and violation of you on security council resolutions of the u. s. embassy from, from tel aviv to jerusalem. at the same time, they've also in line with jared cushions approach stated that the fundamental obstacle to peace in the middle east is the refusal, supposedly, of the arab states to recognise israel rather than israel's refusal to recognize any palestinian rights and against that. they also want to strengthen the palestinian authority and, and weaken those palestinian movements that are in opposition to the core tenets of the american policy. i just outline so it's a real conundrum for the americans and how they intend to square that circle will i think be interesting to watch. well, i'm curious to ask you a little more about that because the u. s. was accused of this flow. sluggish response to the violence of siding with israel. as per the policy you're talking about. lincoln's presumably going to have to explain that to the palestinians. how's that like you to go over? well, it's not going to go over well at all, an

jerusalem. take you back to the you in the human rights council. it's never listened. they're still having technical problems, i think. okay, we'll find out. okay, that's amanda. thank you. thank you so much for your patience. thank you. so apparently michelle bachelor, who is joining remotely, and we did hear her just saying, i use zoom every day and we don't have problems, maybe the problems at your end. but clearly there are some issues in getting this going. and i think you've actually been asked to pop a headset on if possible, so that we get some clearer audio. as james said, we don't actually know where michelle vasily is, but she is joining remotely. so many of these meetings from the highest levels at the u. n to well are here at out of the are and probably you watching as well. so much of your life has been moved online, and this is what happens occasionally when the technology fails. we'll check in again, just briefly with james by. oh, hold on a 2nd, let them listen. adam. hi commissioner, we can hear you very clearly and i'm told it we're ready to start. i

on the lines of the 4th of june, 1967, each of them having jerusalem as the capital in the framework of international law and security council resolutions, the commitment of the international community to peace in the middle east must be total. as long as this conflict has not been solved politically. we will see violence, ria car. it is the palestinian and israeli populations each time that will pay the price, the minister for europe and foreign affairs showing that he has recall this to the international community. when he spoke with his german egyptian and jordanian colleagues in paris on the 11th of march in the following weeks, france expressed a serious concern with regard to the evictions of palestinian families in east jerusalem particular in shake gerra by contending the pursuit. this pursuance of a settlement activity because illegal central mon settlements that are legal, international law, and they were intentions. we also recalled the needful respect for status grove, $967.00 with regard to the holy sites, particularly with regard to jordan and a specific role in this regard. you know, all of these calls for hat

jerusalem. i think you note -- go ahead. katty: what do you make of the united states voing a call for the cease-fire at the un security councilks like biden is not prepared to use the leverage he has over the israeli government. why not? >> it is difficult to understand. if you think about the last couple of weeks, at any point, the administration could have called out israel and said stop your provocative activities in jerusalem, stop the evictions, the forced displacement of palestinian families. the administration chose to talk about what was happening in jerusalem and you hear from president biden, things like wanting sustained calm. you hear secretary blinken talk about ending violence. you do not hear explicit language about a cease-fire. in the security council, even a statement calling for a cease-fire was blocked by the u.s. it is hard to square this idea the u.s. wants to see an end to the violence when it will not support a simple cease-fire statement from the un security council. katty: right. thank you very much for joining us. >> thank you. katty: president biden announced his administration is sending 20 millio

security council to even come up with a joint statement on the violence there was a man calm reports now from west jerusalem. would leave the site backing down israeli and palestinian officials are using tough language that presents a problem for a diplomatic solution on sunday the un security council was reportedly unable to issue a statement due to a u.s. veto it's the 3rd time that has happened this week one person involved in the talks told out is there that egypt jordan the u.n. and others are all pushing for a breakthrough but it's unlikely anything will happen in the immediate future on monday french president of on your mccraw an egyptian president of the c.c. met at a conference on sudan for the egyptian president events that were firmly on his mind saying that he was urgently working on efforts to resolve the conflict. for the current situation we are working urgently and clearly for the return of calm and the end of violence and killing that is taking place we are exacting efforts and will do so there is always hope and hope with all of us moving together to end this conflict in ramallah palestin

and what he called for is for the un a human rights council to investigate violence and abuses in the occupied palestinian territories and east jerusalem. but it goes beyond the violence that we've seen recently, it actually calls for the counsel to set up a special committee, a body that would be ongoing, and that be ongoing investigations into abuses in those areas. now the text talks about looking into things like a systematic discrimination, really trying to seek out the root causes of tensions and abuses. the idea is that there's office a special committee would be able to gather evidence that could be used in the future to try and prosecute possible perpetrate perpetrators of crimes and human rights of violations. the text also calls on the international community to mobilize rapidly more aid, humanitarian assistance for, for palestinians. it also calls on the international community not to transfer to any side. if there is a risk that those arms, a weapons could be used against civilians. if there is a risk that those weapons could be used in any human rights violations. so a very complete text, we've heard from a speaker from a
