Shortly before the vote, Russia had proposed an amendment to replace the term “durable” with permanent.” The term, in fact, according to the Russian ambassador Vassily Nebenzia it had been replaced at the last minute and would have “watered down the text and left plenty to interpretations, allowing Israel to resume military operations at any time”.
