Azerbaijan continues to blockade Artsakh and causes obstacles and threats to the free movement of Artsakh citizens, vehicles and cargo, Artsakh’s InfoCenter says.
The existence of the Azerbaijani checkpoint and the closed road in the Shushi area are the biggest obstacles and dangers that violate the provisions of the Tripartite Statement of November 9, 2020 and the decision of the UN International Court of Justice, the Center says, noting that “all efforts of the Azerbaijani side to maintain the illegal check point and to control and obstruct the movement of Artsakh citizens, vehicles and cargo are unacceptable.”
Therefore, the Artsakh authorities reaffirm that the two-way movement between Artsakh and Armenia is organized and accompanied exclusively by the Russian peacekeeping troops and the International Committee of the Red Cross to ensure the minimum safety of Artsakh citizens on that way.
People requiring movement in both directions should apply to the relevant state bodies in order to solve the issue through the mentioned mechanisms.
