Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said that for 10 minutes before the vote in the UN Security Council, he called Bush, who then persuaded Rice not to vote for the resolution. Until then, it was assumed that the U.S. would support the demands for Israel to immediately cease fire. According to Olmert, Rice, who made one of the authors of this paper was delivered in an awkward position.
