PACE Committee concerned by humanitarian crisis due to ongoing  obstruction of Lachin Corridor - Statement

ArmInfo.The Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights of the Parliament Assembly of the Council of Europe is greatly concerned by the humanitarian crisis  unfolding due to the ongoing obstruction of the Lachin Corridor. This  is stated in the Committee's statement posted on the PACE official  website.

"This corridor is the lifeline between those living in  Nagorno-Karabakh and Armenia, and the Committee fully supports the  public statement made by the Parliamentary Assembly co-rapporteurs  for the monitoring of Armenia on 24 February 2023, calling for  "immediate action" and "the immediate cessation of the unlawful and  illegitimate obstruction of the Lachin corridor". The Committee also  calls on the Azerbaijani authorities to implement without delay the  measures addressed to it by the International Court of Justice (ICJ)  of 22 February 2023 and of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR)  of 21 December 2022 whose decisions noted the obligation on  Azerbaijan under the Trilateral Statement, signed on 9 November 2020,  to "guarantee the security of persons, vehicles and cargo moving  along the Lachin Corridor in both directions" (Article 6 of the  Trilateral Statement).1 The Committee furthermore refers to other  international statements addressed to the authorities of Azerbaijan  on the same issue, including - the joint statement of the four co-  rapporteurs of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe  for the monitoring of Azerbaijan and Armenia of December 16, 2022,  which states that "Freedom and security of movement of persons and  goods must be urgently restored along the corridor. We call on all  parties to the Trilateral Statement of 9-10 November 2020 to  immediately take the necessary measures", and - the European  Parliament resolution of 19 January 2023 on the humanitarian  consequences of the blockade in Nagorno-Karabakh," the statement  reads.
