Presenter urged all member states to act to prevent further conflict and to comply with international legal obligations. "Everything must be done to prevent a further escalation," the Presenter said, framing the appeal as urgent and collective.
The Presenter called explicitly on states "to strictly uphold their obligations under international law," and invoked the United Nations Charter and international humanitarian law as the legal frameworks that require protection of civilians. "...including the United Nations Charter, to respect and protect civilians in accordance with international humanitarian law," the Presenter said, stressing legal duties that govern conduct in armed conflict.
The statement also singled out nuclear safety as a priority, with the Presenter urging measures "to ensure nuclear safety." The address framed these measures as part of a broader responsibility to de-escalate tensions: "Let us act responsibly and together to pull the region and our world back from the brink."
The Presenter concluded the brief address with a closing "Thank you." No vote, motion, or formal action was recorded in the transcript; the remarks stand as an appeal to member states and do not establish new policy.
