Most members of the UN Security Council called for deescalation of the Israel-Iran conflict at an emergency meeting of the Security Council on Sunday. The Sunday meeting was the third UN Security Council emergency meeting on the situation in Iran within the last 10 days. Based on speeches at the meeting, most members of the UN Security Council held three consensuses. First, they emphasized deescalation of the Israel-Iran conflict. Second, they voiced support for the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), agreeing that resolving the Iranian nuclear issue through political and diplomatic means are needed. Third, they agreed upon strictly abiding by the UN Charter and international law. European allies of the United States -- Britain and France -- made clear at the meeting that they did not join the U.S. attacks on relevant Iranian nuclear facilities. Countries, including Russia and Pakistan, condemned U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities at the meeting. Shotlist: UN Headquarters, New York City - June 22, 2025: 1.
