“After a United Nations vote condemning President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, US ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley invited all the countries that didn't vote for the resolution to a party to thank them for their "friendship to the United States" on Wednesday.
The invite, which was sent via email, stated that a formal invitation would follow, and set the gala's date for January 3, 2018.
Only nine countries voted directly against the resolution, while 56 others either abstained or did not cast a ballot. The vote came after Haley threatened the US would be "taking names" of countries that voted against the resolution, which may have led to a higher number of abstentions than usually occur on Israel-related resolutions, according to Reuters.
In off-the-cuff comments made during a cabinet meeting, Trump himself seemed to threaten to cut off aid to countries that voted against the resolution.
"Let them vote against us," he said. "We'll save a lot. We don't care. But this isn't like it used to be where they could vote against you and then you pay them hundreds of millions of dollars. We're not going to be taken advantage of any longer.”
