“The parties stress that they will not allow other countries to use their territories for acts of aggression or other military operations against any party,” the declaration reads.
The signatories pledged efforts to build and enhance mutual confidence, regional security, and stability, and to refrain from the use of force in solving mutual problems.
Participants said in their joint declaration that the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty was key to international stability and security.
The five countries – Azerbaijan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Russia, and Turkmenistan, confirmed “the unassailable right of all signatories to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty to research, produce, and use nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, without discrimination, and within the provisions of this treaty, and the safeguards of the IAEA [International Atomic Energy Agency],” the statement said.
The declaration also asserts the countries’ “responsibility for damage inflicted on Caspian resources and to any Caspian state from the use of the Caspian Sea and development of its resources.”
The five nations acknowledged that “Caspian resources, and the sea’s sturgeon population, require the adoption of joint emergency action to prevent negative environmental consequences.”
The summit participants said a future convention on the legal status of the sea should respect sovereign rights of Caspian states, and include environmental regulations, navigation norms and economic rules.
The declaration also spoke for “peaceful, just and stable solutions to conflicts in line with the UN charter, also taking into account sovereignty, territorial integrity and the inviolability of internationally recognized borders to ensure security, peace and stability in the region.” Š
