President Borut Pahor reaffirmed Slovenia’s support for Ukraine’s territorial integrity as he attended an international conference on Russia’s illegal annexation of the Crimea in 2014.
He backed the joint declaration of the newly formed Crimea Platform, and called for dialogue between Ukraine and Russia, and the EU and Russia. In the face of growing instability in the region and beyond, Pahor said the conference was an important step in support of joint efforts to keep the illegal annexation of the Crimea high on the agenda of the international community.
