UNITED NATIONS, United States, June 26, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - UN chief Antonio 
Guterres said Thursday the United Nations is facing unprecedented attacks on 
its founding principles, as it marks 80 years since the organization's 
Charter was created.

"Today, we see assaults on the purposes and principles of the UN Charter like 
never before,"the secretary-general told members of the General Assembly.

"The Charter of the United Nations is not optional. It is not an a la carte 
menu. It is the bedrock of international relations. We cannot and must not 
normalize violations of its most basic principles," he added.
