Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei has cautioned against limiting the United Nations' purpose to merely preventing war between major global powers. He argues this is a “misleading and dangerous” interpretation of the UN Charter. Baqaei emphasized that the UN’s core principle, enshrined in Article 2, Paragraph 4, prohibits the use of force in *all* international relations, not just those involving superpowers. This statement highlights Iran’s belief in the UN’s broader role in maintaining global peace and security for all nations. Limiting the UN’s function in this way undermines its universal scope and weakens international law. Baqaei’s remarks suggest concern that a focus solely on great power conflict neglects other threats and instances of aggression worldwide. This position underscores Iran’s commitment to a multilateral world order grounded in the principles of the UN Charter.
