Secretary-General of the United Nations António Guterres is publicly and privately “being supportive of any diplomatic efforts that can be restored,”  the U.N. spokesman has said.


Asked about France and Russia who have offered to mediate in the U.S.-Israel-Iran conflict, spokesman Stephane Dujarric said there are also other countries: “We’ve seen Oman being very productive in that sense, and I think anyone that can help, should help.”

The secretary-general “has condemned every escalation in this conflict,” Dujarric told U.N. reporters Monday, reports UNB. 

“What we need to see is not more missiles going both ways or different ways. What we need to see is, as we said, a return to diplomacy.”

He stressed: “The more we see unilateral use of force, the more we see violations of international law, the riskier the region gets.”
