The US ambassador to the United Nations has warned she is "taking names" of UN members who oppose Donald Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
In a letter to UN members, Nikki Haley said the US President took the issue personally and the names of those who supported a resolution rejecting the bill would be reported to him.
“As you consider your vote, I want you to know the president and the US take this vote personally," she said.
“The president will be watching this vote carefully and has requested I report back on those who voted against us," she added.
In a Twitter post, she said: "At the UN we're always asked to do more & give more.
"So, when we make a decision, at the will of the American ppl, abt where to locate OUR embassy, we don't expect those we've helped to target us.
"On Thurs there'll be a vote criticizing our choice. The US will be taking names."
The international community has broadly condemned Mr Trump's decision to move the embassy, with Turkey describing it as "a deliberate undermining of all peace efforts".
Earlier this week, the US was outnumbered 14 to 1 at a UN security council vote on a resolution calling on America to reverse its decision, but the nation used its veto to block the measure.
Ms Haley described the 14-1 vote as an "insult", warning: "It won't be forgotten".
