UN Security Council to hold high-level debate on Middle East political solutions

New York, June 7 (Petra) — The United Nations Security Council will
hold a high-level open debate on Wednesday to address political
solutions in the Middle East, focusing on mediation and dialogue to
achieve lasting peace.

The meeting, held under the agenda item “Maintenance of International
Peace and Security,” is expected to be chaired by Colombian President
Gustavo Petro Urrego, with UN Secretary-General António Guterres
delivering a briefing.

A concept note prepared by Colombia for the discussion indicates that
recurring conflicts and armed violence in the Middle East, coupled
with a worsening humanitarian situation, pose escalating challenges
to regional stability and the maintenance of international peace and
security.
