TEHRAN – UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres had a telephone conversation with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on Saturday.

Guterres and Zarif discussed the major regional and international developments, Tasnim reported.

In September 2018, President Hassan Rouhani held a meeting with Guterres on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York.

In the gathering, Rouhani urged the UN to do its duty to fully uphold international law in such a way that no country could arbitrarily violate international regulations and UN Security Council resolutions.

He also voiced Iran’s readiness to work with the UN on regional and international issues and help settle conflicts in Syria and Yemen.
