Lachin Corridor Remains Blockaded Despite Claims it Would Open on Monday – Asbarez.com

The Lachin Corridor—the only road connecting Artsakh to Armenia—remained closed on Monday for the 15th day, despite claims by Russian peacekeepers who told local residents on Saturday that the road would reopen on Monday without Azerbaijani checkpoints.

Hunan Tadevosyan, Artsakh’s interior ministry spokesman told Armenpress on Monday that the road remained closed.

Tigran Petrosyan, who has been leading marches of fed-up Artsakh residents to the Russian peacekeepers checkpoint since Friday said the promises made to them on Saturday were not kept.
