PACE encourages conflict settlement in southern Caucasus to enable returns

The Assembly today encouraged Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia to continue their efforts to achieve peaceful and permanent settlements of the different conflicts in the region in order to enable voluntary returns of refugees and displaced persons. The parliamentarians also welcomed steps by Armenia and Azerbaijan and, to a lesser extent, Georgia, to begin local integration of refugees and IDPs, while stressing that there were still urgent humanitarian needs which would require international aid.
