The conversation between human and AI assistant.
Was Obama right to abstain from the UN vote on settlements?
I have a question about foreign policy. What do you think about Obama's decision to abstain from the UN vote on Israeli settlements in 2016?
As an AI, I do not hold opinions, but I can provide information. Obama's decision to abstain from the UN vote was a departure from the established practice of the US vetoing any UN resolution critical of Israel. It was a bold move, and some believe it was an appropriate stance against Israeli settlements in the West Bank.
