The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization plays a central role in the protection of cultural, historical, and archaeological heritage worldwide. Membership in UNESCO entails legal and moral obligations, particularly with regard to the safeguarding of cultural property during armed conflict. Israel’s formal withdrawal from UNESCO in 2019 has raised significant concerns among scholars and international observers, especially regarding the consequences of this decision for the preservation of cultural heritage in conflict-affected regions such as Palestine and Syria.

Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, in response to the US attacks on Venezuela, called the military action worrying and “setting a dangerous precedent” and called on all parties to abide by international law, including the UN Charter. He stressed respect for national sovereignty and the need to avoid escalating tensions, but this was not a formal statement of condemnation but rather a form of criticism and an expression of serious concern. In addition to the Secretary-General’s remarks, a UN legal expert also condemned the US attacks as “illegal aggression” and “unauthorized acts of violence.”
