    UN General Assembly okays Palestine's full membership but with no voting rights

    According to BA media, Argentina might expect Israel's reciprocity regarding the Falklands/Malvinas issue after siding with the minority on Friday

    Despite Argentina's thumbs down together with eight other countries, the United Nations (UN) decided on Friday by 143 votes in favor and 25 abstentions to upgrade Palestine's status within the organization to that of a full membership, it was reported in New York. In 2012, Palestine had been admitted as an Observer State with 138 votes in and also 9 against.
