Victims of wars less involved with negotiator about end to confrontation (4,11)
I believe the answer is:
lost generations
'victims of wars' is the definition.
The definition suggests a plural noun which matches the answer.
'less involved with negotiator about end to confrontation' is the wordplay.
'involved with' indicates an anagram (involved can mean confusing or complex).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'end to' says to take the final letters.
The last letter of 'confrontation' is 'n'.
'less' mixed up with 'negotiator' can make 'lostgeerations'.
'lostgeerations' going around 'n' is 'LOST GENERATIONS'.
