Szijjarto calls on UN to help de-escalate tensions in Middle East

The United Nations must take steps to ease tensions in the Middle East and contribute to efforts aimed at resolving the US-Iran conflict as soon as possible, Hungary's foreign minister said in New York during a debate marking the organisation's 75th anniversary. Hungary is clearly concerned about developments in the Middle East and has an interest the de-escalation of the conflict, Peter Szijjarto said. He said the Hungarian government expected the United Nations, as the largest international organisation in charge of ensuring peace and security around the world, "to do its real job" instead of acting as a "self-appointed advocate of migration".
