“The United Nations will approach the US government over a report by a German magazine that US intelligence spied on video conferences by top UN officials, a spokesman said Monday. ‘We are aware of the reports, and we intend to be in touch with the relevant authorities on this,’ a UN spokesman, Farhan Haq, told reporters, adding that this meant the US administration. Haq told reporters the 1961 Vienna Convention on diplomatic relations has become ‘well established international law, therefore member states are expected to act accordingly to protect the inviolability of diplomatic missions.'”
