How Belarus Voted on a Gaza Ceasefire

The December 2023 UN roll call records Belarus among the 153 governments voting in favour.

On December 12, 2023, Belarus voted for General Assembly resolution ES-10/22. The resolution passed 153 to 10 with 23 abstentions. It demanded an immediate humanitarian ceasefire and the immediate and unconditional release of hostages, and called for humanitarian access.

The Assembly considered proposed amendments separately. The plenary transcript and final roll call identify what was put to a vote and how Belarus voted on the resolution. The records provide no evidence linking the vote to a domestic protest or a disruption to public services in Belarus.
