The Union for the Mediterranean (UfM) called to strengthen efforts to resolve conflicts that are holding the region back from development and integration, Anadolu News Agency reports. The Jordanian and EU co-presidency of the UfM released a joint statement after the union's sixth regional forum wrapped up in Barcelona on Monday evening. Finding a political solution to the Libyan crises was another of the Union's key concerns. The forum emphasised the need to keep pushing for a political solution to the Syrian crisis, while also renewing its commitment to providing humanitarian aid to Syrians in need. Besides discussing the conflicts plaguing the Mediterranean, country representatives also met on the sidelines to review progress on regional integration.
