The President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Mediterranean (PAM), on behalf of the organization, condemns in the strongest possible terms the military aggression being carried out by the Russian Federation against the sovereignty, independence, and people of Ukraine.
PAM fully shares the grave concerns expressed by the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the European Union and leaders of the international community in terms of the consequences of this unilateral decision, which violates the principles enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations and the basic principles of International and Humanitarian Law, and the bloodshed and the casualties resulting from it.
PAM invites to the immediate resumption of diplomatic dialogue and the halting of all military operations against Ukraine, in the respect of the UN Charter, the territorial integrity of the country, and its democratically elected government.
PAM supports the efforts of the Secretary-General of the United Nations and of the World Leaders in obtaining an immediate ceasefire and avoid sufferance to millions of innocent victims of this unilateral action.
