“I hope that Azerbaijan’s reaction will also be positive,” Pashinian said in a meeting this Thursday with the Armenian Executive.

Referring to the situation in the Lachin corridor, he stated that a food shortage began in Nagorno-Karabakh due to blockade actions by Azerbaijani “environmentalists”.

The humanitarian situation in Nagorno-Karabakh remains extremely tense as a result of the illegal blockade of the Lachin corridor, and hundreds of families lack essential goods, including food, not to mention that they remain divided on opposite sides of the road, he stressed.

Nagorno-Karabagh is a region with a majority Armenian population, but is located within the territory of Azerbaijan.Yerevan and Baku have fought several wars since their secession in 1988 from the then Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic.
