Further Iran-US peace talks 'highly probable', says UN secretary general The United Nations secretary general Antonio Guterres said that indications suggest that it is “highly probable” that ceasefire negotiations between Iran and the US will resume, in remarks delivered to reporters on Tuesday. Speaking about the talks between Israel and Lebanon taking place in Washington on Tuesday, Guterres said that although no one expects them to solve all the problems, a direct conversation is very important to create the conditions for change.
“There is no military solution to this crisis,” Guterres added in a post to X, calling for negotiations and a ceasefire to be sustained in the region. There is no military solution to this crisis. Peace agreements require persistent engagement and political will. Serious negotiations must resume. The ceasefire must be preserved – and extended as necessary. pic.twitter.com/7VvLyf393p — UN Spokesperson (@UN_Spokesperson) April 14, 2026
