“Our goal remains to deliver the humanitarian cargo to Nagorno Karabakh. There still needs to be a constructive response from Azerbaijan; moreover, they often have a provocative nature. We are still waiting for the reaction of the Russian side,” Vardan Sargsyan, representative of the humanitarian crisis management working group in Nagorno-Karabakh, said in a briefing with journalists at the information center of Tegh community on July 28. According to the latter, when diplomats visited Kornidzor, they were convinced that the road was closed, contrary to Azerbaijan’s claims.
To remind, 19 trucks carrying humanitarian aid to Artsakh have stood in Kornidzor, just above Hakari bridge, for several days. The trucks contain 60 tons of sugar, 40 tons of oil, 100 tons of flour, 80 tons of pasta, 20 tons of salt, 40 tons of milk powder, 12 tons of baby food, and 9 tons of medicine. Syunik Region Governor Robert Ghukasyan presented the situation to the diplomats, noting that the humanitarian burden should reach the people waiting impatiently and hungry.
