The final statement released on Saturday night highlighted the “human suffering and negative added impacts of the war in Ukraine." It cited a United Nations charter, saying “All states must refrain from the threat or use of force to seek territorial acquisition against the territorial integrity and sovereignty or political independence of any state."
A Russian spokesperson admitted that the final discussions relating to Ukraine was ‘very difficult’, but noted that the agreed text had “a balanced view.”
