Today, numerous representatives of the diplomatic corps accredited in Azerbaijan have visited the Lachin border checkpoint.
The diplomats got acquainted with the conditions created at the border crossing point and had a chance to personally witness the falsity of the provocative claims of the Armenian side about the closure of the road. They were briefed about the investigative measures currently carried out here in connection with the Armenian armed provocation committed on June 15, in which an Azerbaijani soldier was injured. The foreign diplomats were given detailed information about the incident.
The Azerbaijani side highlighted that at the same time the conditions have been created for the activity of the International Committee of the Red Cross for the transportation of citizens in need of medical care. Thus, any claims about the “blockade” are a manipulation by the Armenian side, which uses the fact of Azerbaijan conducting investigative measures for false propaganda, and which involved with this end in view foreign diplomats, who were brought to the opposite side of the bridge over the River of Hakari.
