OSCE Chair-in-Office travels to South Caucasus

OSCE Chair-in-Office travels to South Caucasus

ArmInfo.The  credibility and positioning of the OSCE in the global political and security  architecture "remain at stake".   OSCE Chair-in-Office, Malta's Minister for Foreign and European Affairs and Trade Ian Borg, stated in Washington, Turan news agency reports. 

"Russia's illegal war of aggression against Ukraine, as well as  numerous violations of OSCE principles and commitments in recent  years in several participating states, have significantly degraded  relations among OSCE members, the organization's current chair,  Maltese Foreign Minister Ian Borg, stated on Tuesday in Washington   D.C.  Beyond Ukraine, the organization's current focus extends to  the protracted conflicts within the OSCE region, including the  Transnistrian settlement process and the evolving situation in the  South Caucasus, he said, the  source notes.

"I'm personally committed to being present on the ground to ensure  that we're not just overseeing but actively engaging. My recent  visits to Serbia, Kosovo and Moldova as well as upcoming missions to  the South Caucasus are part of our concerted effort to listen  attentively to our partners and engage in meaningful dialogues  ensuring our actions are informed by the perspectives and the needs  of relevant stakeholders," he said.  "We are committed to rebuilding  trust and confidence on the ground reinforcing OSCE's role as a  dynamic force for peace," he went on to add.

Notably, the South Caucasus is not mentioned in the official OSCE  report on Borg's speech in Washington
