Tehran: UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres’ personal envoy Jean Arnault met Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Majid Takht-Ravanchi in Tehran on Thursday as part of UN efforts to bring about an end to the Iran war, the UN said.
“He heard views on the way forward and reiterated the secretary-general’s firm commitment to making every possible effort to support a peaceful settlement of this conflict,” he said.
Dujarric said Arnault would continue his regional tour with several visits in the Middle East “aimed at supporting the ongoing efforts to achieve a comprehensive and durable resolution to this conflict.
“He said Arnault’s meeting with the deputy minister had been “substantive, and he hopes to continue his consultations.”
“We expect him to stay a little bit longer in Tehran, but obviously, things shift quite quickly,” Dujarric said.
