"There are still a few contentious points among the delegations. In some cases, disagreements reportedly revolved around specific words," the agency notes.

The Peace Summit organisers do not yet know if the final declaration will be adopted by all participants. A scenario is being considered where the declaration is published without consensus, and each country can indicate whether it accepts it or not.
