Artsakh State Minister Ruben Vardanyan calls urgent meeting
Artsakh’s State Minister Ruben Vardanyan on Tuesday convened an emergency consultation regarding the disruption of gas supply by Azerbaijan.
Issues related to ensuring the uninterrupted functioning of essential facilities were discussed, the Artsakh government reported.
“State Minister Ruben Vardanyan instructed officials in charge of infrastructures to take measures and ensure the functioning of the essential facilities and the minimum demand of the population through alternative methods. Energy supply remains disrupted since January 9. The Azerbaijani side does not allow specialists to approach, understand the reasons and carry out emergency restoration works if necessary. 120,000 people in Artsakh don’t have access to energy and gas supply in freezing weather conditions,” it said.
Energy supply is currently carried out at the expense of highly limited domestic resources in Artsakh.
