Delivered by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesman for the Secretary-General
The adoption of the resolution on Gaza by the Security Council is an important step in the consolidation of the ceasefire, which the Secretary-General encourages all parties to abide by.
It is essential now to translate the diplomatic momentum into concrete and urgently needed steps on the ground. The United Nations is committed to implementing the roles entrusted to it in the resolution, scaling up humanitarian assistance to meet the needs of civilians in Gaza and supporting all efforts to move the parties toward the next phase of the ceasefire.
The Secretary-General commends the continued diplomatic efforts of Egypt, Qatar, Türkiye, the United States, and regional states.
The Secretary-General underlines the importance of moving towards the second phase of the U.S. Plan, leading to a political process for the achievement of the two-State solution, in line with previous United Nations resolutions.
