"Let funds not be invested in bullets or ammunition, let them be invested in sitting down to talk in order to attack common enemies, such as poverty, inequality and disease, around the world," Mr. Castillo expressed.
Likewise, the Government reiterated its call to stop all hostilities and violations of the ceasefire in Ukraine.
"We reaffirm our conviction that international peace and security entail the imperative obligation to find solutions to conflicts through peaceful means, in accordance with the
Charter of the United Nations and international law," it expressed on Twitter.
At the UN
Peru agrees with what was expressed by
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, in the sense that recognizing the independence of separatist territories and the deployment of military forces within those territories "are incompatible with the principles of the
Charter of the United Nations, and they constitute a violation of the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine," the diplomat said.
"It is imperative that all hostilities and violations of ceasefire in the zone stop, as prescribed by the Minsk Agreements," he emphasized.
