UN Chief Urges Security Council to "Reset" Peacekeeping Operations

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called on the UN Security Council to reset the organization's peacekeeping operations, according to Anadolu Agency.

"We do not lack tools. What we lack, all too often, is the political space to use them," Guterres told the Security Council, according to the report.

The remarks point to political constraints, rather than a shortage of resources or mechanisms, as a central challenge facing UN peacekeeping missions, according to the UN chief.

Anadolu Agency did not provide further details on the specific reforms Guterres proposed or the context of the session at which the remarks were made.
