Madam President,
In view of this, the UN Secretary General on Sunday stated in this Council that ”there is a growing risk that this conflict could rapidly get out of control – with catastrophic consequences for civilians, the region, and the world.” We welcome the announced ceasefire and urge all sides to effectively implement it.
Thank you, Madam President.
