İran asked BM to stop ABD attacks, threatened the ceasefire agreement

İran's Permanent Representative to the Birleşmiş Milletler, Amir Saeid Iravani, demanded the institution stop the attacks carried out by the Amerika Birleşik Devletleri. Iravani threatened to scrap the agreement signed in haziran ayında if Washington fails to comply with the deal. The Ambassador emphasized that this situation cannot be ignored, noting that the recent ABD attacks clearly violate the Birleşmiş Milletler Şartı. Speaking to reporters at the doors of the Güvenlik Konseyi, Iravani stated that the BM must urgently intervene in the matter. The official also requested that the institution hold the ABD fully responsible for its aggressive actions and ensure it fulfills its obligations.

The tension between the parties gained a new dimension after İran attacked two cargo ships in the Hürmüz Boğazı. The Washington administration viewed this attack as a clear violation of the agreement signed on 17 Haziran and restarted military operations against Tahran in response. İran, in the face of this situation, retaliated by bombing American bases in Kuveyt, Bahreyn, and Ürdün. Iravani used harsh language against external interventions, claiming that the responsibility in the Hürmüz Boğazı belongs solely to İran. The Ambassador stated that any external intervention would jeopardize maritime security and further increase regional tension.

The main purpose of the agreement signed between the two countries on 17 Haziran was to end the war and reopen the Hürmüz Boğazı to traffic. Additionally, this agreement planned to lay the groundwork for initiating diplomatic negotiations over İran's nuclear program. Iravani stated that Tahran is ready to remain loyal to this treaty but that this is a conditional situation. The İranian official announced that they will not maintain their commitments unless the ABD fulfills its obligations completely. The fact that the agreement is in such a fragile process has brought the possibility of a major war breaking out in the region back to the agenda.

Following the intense two-day attacks, ABD President Donald Trump announced that he had completely ended the ceasefire agreement. Trump initially stated that they had no intention of entering a new dialogue or negotiation process with İran. However, evaluating the issue anew on cuma günü, the ABD President announced that they would pursue a different strategy. The President stated that the Washington administration would continue talks with Tahran to end the conflict. Accordingly, Trump emphasized that no new ceasefire or peace treaty would be made and that negotiations would continue under military pressure.

The international community is deeply concerned about the global impacts of this extremely tense situation between the two countries. Because a significant portion of the world's oil supply passes through the Hürmüz Boğazı, a potential war has the potential to deeply shake global energy markets. İran's statements at the BM show that while Tahran wants to use diplomatic means until the last moment, it is also not afraid of a military conflict. The contradiction of the ABD suspending the ceasefire while simultaneously continuing negotiations demonstrates how fragile Washington's strategy in the region is. In order to achieve permanent peace in the Orta Doğu, both the nuclear dispute and maritime security issues must be urgently resolved.
