Peru reiterates its support for the promotion of and respect for international humanitarian law by all parties to a conflict, particularly non-State armed groups. Peru is a party to the Fourth Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War and its Additional Protocols relating to the protection of victims in international and non-international armed conflicts, which are the cornerstones of international humanitarian law on the protection of civilians. That is why we reiterate our call on States that have not yet become party to these international instruments to do so.
