France regrets Israel's serious, unjustified and counterproductive decision to declare UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres persona non grata.
We reaffirm our full support for and confidence in the UN Secretary-General.
France reiterates its commitment to the UN Charter, international law, and the importance of abiding by UN Security Council decisions with regard to peacekeeping and international security. The UN plays a fundamental role in the region's stability.
