Against the background of the current geopolitical context, they emphasized the particular need for the GID process to deliver on its core agenda items for the benefit of all conflict-affected people, - Press communiqué of the Co-Chairs reads.
In Working Group I, the participants reviewed the overall security situation on the ground and continued their deliberations on issues relating to the implementation of the 2008 six-point agreement, especially non-use of force and international security arrangements.
