On August 22, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Armenia Ararat Mirzoyan had a phone conversation with Jan Lipavský, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic.
Presenting the worsening humanitarian crisis in Nagorno-Karabakh resulting from Azerbaijan’s illegal blockade of the Lachin corridor, Ararat Mirzoyan emphasized that since June 15, 120,000 people of Nagorno-Karabakh have been under total siege.
Minister Mirzoyan emphasized that because of the blockade even food and essential medicines are not supplied to Nagorno-Karabakh, and the situation is very close to a real humanitarian catastrophe.
Ararat Mirzoyan stressed that Azerbaijan’s pattern of behavior continues despite the appeals of international partners, organisations, and two decisions of the International Court of Justice, and in the current situation underlined the urgency of taking clear steps towards the reopening of the Lachin corridor.
