The UN Secretary-General has confirmed his opposition to the planned move of the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem next week, Quds Press has reported. The position of António Guterres is “very clear” on this issue, said his spokesman.
“He has expressed this on many occasions before,” Stéphane Dujarric told a press conference on Tuesday. “He is against this unilateral US move, and his position has not changed.” He added that the Secretary-General respects the sovereign rights of the Member States of the United Nations.”
