Uraugayan Ambassador Elbio Rosselli (left) and Venezuelan Ambassador Rafael Ramirez (right) oppose the renewal of the mandate for MINURSA. On the eve of the expiration for the current mandate for the Mission for the Referendum in Western Sahara (MINURSO), and amid an increasingly acrimonious dispute between the UN Secretary-General and Morocco, the United Nations Security Council voted to renew the peacekeeping mission's mandate as Security Council Resolution 2285 - the final vote count was 10 in favor, two opposed and three abstentions (Photo by Albin Lohr-Jones/Pacific Press)
