It should also be noted that the region today has common challenges that need to be overcome. These are ethno-nationalism, chauvinism and militarism.Recognition of peace today means rejection of the deep-rooted ideas of ethno-nationalism, chauvinism and militarism that governed the countries of our region since their independence. Recognition of peace today means, among other things, an agreement on new political ideals in relation to the conflict regions in our country, which are based primarily on an individual and his dignity,” the statement says.
