"In particular, we reaffirm our commitment to refraining from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, the principles of sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of all states, including Ukraine," stated the communiqué from the two-day summit on peace in Ukraine. Unfortunately, not all participants of the event signed it.

The ongoing war of Russia against Ukraine "continues to cause large-scale human suffering and destruction" and poses global threats, emphasized the document, which reached, among others, Reuters, AFP, and AP.

Reuters noted that the final communiqué was signed by the majority of the more than 90 countries and international organizations participating in the event. India and Saudi Arabia did not sign it.
