Since December 12, the Azerbaijani authorities, under the guise of fake “environmental” activists, have blocked the only road connecting Artsakh (Nagorno Karabakh) to Armenia and the world, Lachin Corridor, which is rightly called the “road of life”. 120 thousand people living in Artsakh, including 30 thousand children, found themselves in the conditions of a real humanitarian disaster, being deprived of food, fuel, medicine.
Azerbaijan’s blockade of the Lachin Corridor is causing a humanitarian crisis, United States Congresswoman Lori Trahan said.
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan calls for a UN or OSCE fact-finding mission to be deployed to Nagorno Karabakh and Lachin Corridor.
Armenia conveyed to Azerbaijan its proposals around a peace treaty and is ready to sign it with that content, Nikol Pashinyan said at the Cabinet meeting.
The crisis in Lachin Corridor hasn’t been resolved since last week, with the exception of one thing –natural gas supply to Nagorno Karabakh was restored, Nikol Pashinyan said at the Cabinet meeting.
I urge everyone in their power to help my homeland by spreading the message and finding ways to help the people in a great need.
Today we have entered the 10th day of the blockade of Artsakh. The regime in Baku is holding 120 thousand citizens of the Republic of Artsakh as hostages.
On December 21, the European Court examined the request of the Armenian government to apply interim measures against Azerbaijan, reads the message of the Armenian representative’s office on international legal matters.
