Freedom House again urges Azerbaijan to immediately unblock Lachin corridor
Freedom House has reiterated its call for Azerbaijan to immediately end the blockade of the Lachin corridor, the sole road connecting Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) to Armenia.
“Azerbaijan’s month-long blockade of the Lachin corridor is creating a humanitarian crisis within Nagorno-Karabakh as vital supplies dwindle. We call again for Azerbaijan to immediately end the blockage,” the organization said in a statement on Saturday.
“We call on the international community to support the lifting of the blockade and a return to negotiations without coercion. The rights, security, and well-being of the population of Nagorno-Karabakh must be ensured,” it added.
