UN chief slams US attack on Iran as threat to Intl. security



I am gravely alarmed by the use of force by the United States against Iran today. This is a dangerous escalation in a region already on the edge – and a direct threat to international peace and security, Guterres wrote on X early on Sunday.

“There is a growing risk that this conflict could rapidly get out of control – with catasrophic consequences for civilians, the region, and the world.”

“I call on Member States to e-escalate and to uphold their obligations under the UN charter and other rules of international law.”

“At this perilous hour, it is critical to avoid a spiral of chaos.”

“There is no military solution. The only path forward is diplomacy. The only hope is peace.”
