The issue of Jerusalem entered the corridors of the United Nations as a result of the partition of Palestine Resolution No. 181, which was issued by the UN General Assembly on November 29, 1947, and stipulated that the internationalization of Jerusalem is the best way to protect all religious interests in the holy city.

Since the Nakba of 1948, there have been a number of resolutions issued by the Security Council on Israeli violations and measures aimed at Judaizing the holy city to make it its unified capital, but these resolutions have remained mostly on paper because of Israel's non-compliance with them, and because these resolutions themselves are non-deterrent.
