President Harutyunyan chaired an extended meeting of the Security Council
On March 10, President of the Republic of Artsakh Arayik Harutyunyan chaired an extended meeting of the Security Council.
Security-related and humanitarian issues were on the discussion agenda. The Head of the State highlighted that the damaged section of the gas pipeline is located by the adversary’s position, and the Azeri side has been obstructing the renovation activities for three days in a row without any justification.
“There is no doubt that both the damage to the gas pipeline and the delays in the repair works, as well as the aggressive behavior towards the peaceful population of Artsakh in recent days, have a geopolitical context. In particular, Azerbaijan is trying to take advantage of the situation around Ukraine and the involvement of international actors. Official Baku is resorting to obvious provocations aiming at psychologically intimidating the peaceful population of the country and, thus, evicting Armenians from Artsakh.
