Audio By Carbonatix

The Government of Ghana has expressed its concern over the military escalation between Israel and Iran, following the military strikes undertaken by the State of Israel on Iranian territory on 13th June.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a statement copied to the Ghana News Agency said Ghana called on the parties to exercise maximum restraint, prioritize dialogue, and accept the channels of diplomatic facilitation to de-escalate the situation.

It said Ghana also called on the parties to reaffirm their commitment to the Charter of the United Nations and the principles of international law.

“Ghana urges the parties to urgently recommit to the peaceful resolution of the conflict and to respect the sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity of each other,” the statement said.

It noted that Ghana stands ready to support a unified response of the international community to de-escalate the conflict to prevent its spread, abate the further destabilisation of the Middle East, and contain the unfolding threat to international peace and security.
