More than 100 countries defied US President Donald Trump on Thursday and voted in favor of a United Nations General Assembly resolution calling for the United States to withdraw its decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
Trump had threatened to cut off financial aid to countries that voted in favor. His warning did appear to have some impact with nine countries voting against the resolution and 35 abstaining. A total of 128 countries voted for the resolution. A handful of other countries, including Kenya, El Salvador, Ukraine and Myanmar did not take part in the vote.
Below is a list of the countries that did not vote in favor of the resolution.
