A resolution condemning the rejection by the United States of a United Nations resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation.
This is a Senate resolution (S. Res. 103) introduced in the 119th Congress that condemns the United States’ rejection of a United Nations General Assembly resolution—A/ES-11/L.10 (2025)—titled “Advancing a comprehensive, just and lasting peace in Ukraine,” which condemns Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The resolution notes that Russia’s aggression began in 2014 and intensified in 2022, and it states that the United States should not have rejected the UN GA resolution. In short, the measure is a formal, non-binding statement of Senate policy expressing disapproval of the U.S. decision to oppose the UN resolution and signaling support for UN-led diplomatic efforts and international condemnation of the invasion. As a Senate resolution, the bill serves as a symbolic, public statement rather than new law. It records the Senate’s position for the congressional record and may influence diplomatic messaging or bipartisan debate, but it does not authorize funding, create new programs, or impose legal obligations on the executive branch.
