I had to do a double take when I read this headline. I’m interested in reading plausible explanations for why Russia and China would do this beyond geopolitical rivalries.

      Not quite, it looks like the US resolution just calls for the importance of a ceasefire, and Russia/China are saying there should be an immediate ceasefire.

        No, in the article it states the US resolution called for an “immediate” cease fire as well.

        It looks the disagreement is over the word “sustained cease fire” vs “permanent cease fire.” The US resolution also calls for release of the hostages as a part of the ceasefire, whereas in the other version the hostages are not linked to the cease fire.
