The War in Gaza Will Loom Over Biden's U.N. Legacy.

The article discusses President Joe Biden's approach to the United Nations (U.N.) and the impact it has had on U.S. relations with the organization. While Biden has worked to repair the damage done by his predecessor, Donald Trump, and restore U.S. ties to the U.N., his stance on the Israel-Hamas war has put the U.S. at odds with most U.N. members. The article highlights Biden's efforts to rally support among non-Western states, including initiatives on global food security and reforms to the Security Council. However, the administration has been selective in promoting reforms in other areas, leading to criticism from some U.N. officials and foreign diplomats. The article concludes by noting that Biden's legacy at the U.N. will likely be shaped by his approach to reducing tensions in the Middle East, particularly between Israel and its enemies.
