Unfortunately, Azerbaijan is also among countries contaminated with mines, said Director of United Nations Mine Action Service (UNMAS) Ilene Cohn said in her online appeal to the participants of the International Conference on "Mine Action - The Path to Reaching the Sustainable Development Goals" held in Baku, APA reports.

Ilene Cohn said in her speech that the UN will continue to help countries clear landmines and promote the prevention of the spread of mines.

She stressed that the Azerbaijani government and Mine Action Agency of the Republic of Azerbaijan (ANAMA)have done significant work in the direction of mine clearance. The UN official highlighted that ANAMA also shares its experience with other countries, which is important:

"I also thank the UN staff in Azerbaijan for their support in this direction, I thank our coordinator. From now on, we will continue to work together."
