Unidentified council member urges respect for international law, cites UN Charter after March military action
An unidentified council member said at a council meeting that all states must respect international law and the Charter of the United Nations, expressing particular concern about a March military action.

The speaker opened by linking the remarks to "the latest developments" and noting the issue had come up in this council "on 2 previous occasions." They said they "have consistently stressed the imperative of full respect by all for international law, including the Charter of the United Nations," framing the Charter as the foundational instrument for international peace and security.

The speaker added, "I remain deeply concerned that rules of international law have not been respected with regard to the March military action," identifying a specific instance they said raised that concern. They then recalled the Charter's prohibition "of the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state," and said "the maintenance of international peace and security depends on the continued commitment of all member states to adhere to all the provisions of the Charter."
