community should make more humanitarian efforts to solve the mine
problem in Azerbaijan, Links EUROPE Director Dennis Sammut said
during the second International Humanitarian conference on mine
clearance on the theme "Combating the mine threat - the path to
sustainable development" in Baku, trend reports.
"We must approach the issue of mine clearance in the
South Caucasus from a humanitarian point of view. The international
community should make more humanitarian efforts to solve the mine
problem in Azerbaijan,” he said.
It is necessary to take into account the rights of
hundreds of thousands of people who must return to their lands. We
cannot bring the whole world to Azerbaijan's Aghdam, but we can
demonstrate Aghdam to the whole world," he said.

in the region.
"Mine contamination is a big problem in Azerbaijan,
and the country already has a lot of experience in the field of
mine clearance. I want to appeal to my colleagues to convene a
conference on mine clearance in Azerbaijan by the end of the year,"
