After attending the 100th IPRM in Ergneti in 2021, I know firsthand its value in delivering results for conflict-affected communities. As we mark its 15th anniversary, the IPRM remains an important part of the OSCE conflict resolution toolbox.

Dreadful news from the Crocus City Hall in Moscow. Our thoughts are with the victims of the attack and their families. Such acts of terrorism are abhorrent and must be condemned in the strongest possible terms
