The tasks of the Secretariat are clearly defined in the statutory documents of the Organization. The Secretariat is a working body which provides organisational, informational, analytical and advisory support to the activities of the Organization’s bodies.
We call on the newly appointed Secretary General of the Organization to conduct a detailed fact check on the Secretariat’s comment in order to prevent its recurrence.
