Israel has “clear evidence” the Obama administration orchestrated the passage of the anti-Israeli settlement UN Security Council resolution on Friday, though the ambassador did not offer the evidence when pressed in a CNN interview.

“We will present this evidence to the new administration through the appropriate channels, and if they want to share it with the American people they are welcome to do it,” Israel’s ambassador, Ron Dermer, told CNN on Monday.

The Security Council voted 14-0 Friday on a resolution that condemns Israeli settlements in Palestinian territory as a “flagrant violation” of international law” and demands a halt to “all Israeli settlement activities” as “essential for salvaging the two-state solution.”
