/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The GUAM, the organization for democracy and
economic development again appealed to the U.N. General Assembly with
a request to include the issue of protracted conflicts and their
impact upon international peace, security and development in the
agenda of the 61st session.
`The protracted conflicts in the GUAM space, namely in Moldova,
Georgia and Azerbaijan tell on lives of over 16 million people and
jeopardize international peace, security and territorial integrity of
three states, members of the U.N.,’ says the message.
It says that the `situation leads to loss of control over big
territories of these sovereign states and the ongoing occupation
causes flows of refugees and displaced persons this preventing the
economic and social development of the region.’
Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine consider that the
international mediation yielded no results for the settlement of these
conflicts and offered to discuss the issue as a priority, reported the
Ukrainian News Agency.
