Sri Lanka, June 23 -- Sri Lanka is gravely concerned about the latest developments in the Middle East. We continue to call upon all parties to take concrete steps to de-escalate the situation. All concerned parties should return to dialogue and engage in intense diplomatic efforts to establish and maintain peace with a view to ensuring stability in the Middle East region.
