Armenian residents of Karabakh freely cross the Lachin BCP to travel to Armenia

Once again, conditions have been created for the free passage of the Armenian residents of Karabakh through the mediation of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) through the Lachin state border checkpoint, installed on the Khakari River on the Azerbaijani-Armenian border, Trend reports. The BCP carries out the clearance process for civilians traveling from Khankendi to Gorus.

This once again proves that there are no obstacles on the part of Azerbaijan for passing through the BCP on the state border. Armenia’s statements and actions regarding the border are purely provocative.

Thus, in order to prevent the illegal transfer of manpower, ammunition, mines, as well as other military equipment from Armenia to the Armenian armed formations on the territory of Azerbaijan, carried out contrary to the tripartite statement of November 10, 2020, and adequately, the establishment by Armenia of a border checkpoint unilaterally at the entrance to the Lachin-Khankendi road on the border with Azerbaijan on April 22, at 12:00 on April 23, units of the State Border Service of the Republic of Azerbaijan in the sovereign territories of Azerbaijan, on the border with Armenia, at the beginning of the Lachin-Khankendi road, a border checkpoint was established.
