It’s his approach to circumvent Azerbaijan’s blockade of the Lachin Corridor, now in its seventh month, that has severely decreased the availability of food in the country.
The National Assembly, in a statement released today, argues the people of Nagorno Karabakh voted in favor of their independence in 1 September 2, 1991 referendum and that the NKR Supreme Council declared the country’s independence on January 6, 1992
The Artsakh Ministry of Health reports that Azerbaijan continues to block International Red Cross vehicles transporting medicine and medical supplies to Artsakh.
Azerbaijan, however, prevents the entry of the humanitarian goods through the Lachin Corridor and to Nagorno-Karabakh.
