The President of the Council for November, UK's Matthew Rycroft, said that stepping back from the detail of the Su-24 incident, the members have "a shared interest with all of the countries in the region".

UNITED NATIONS (Sputnik) — The UK president of the UN Security Council for November on Tuesday said that the downing of a Russian combat plane by a Turkish jet showed the importance of de-confliction and called on everyone involved to de-escalate.

"We're extremely concerned about the incident of the Russian downed jet. We've been in close touch with our Turkish opposite numbers from the Prime Minister down. It's very important that we learn the lessons of this in terms of de-confliction. I call on everyone involved to de-escalate and to be measured in their response", Matthew Rycroft stated.
