Cars Of Russian Peacekeepers Freely Pass Along Azerbaijan's Lachin-Khankandi Road (PHOTO)
(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) SHUSHA, Azerbaijan, January 2. The peaceful
rally of Azerbaijan's non-governmental organizations (NGO) in
Karabakh close to the Russian peacekeepers temporarily deployed
area near Shusha has been going on for the twentieth second day,
trend reports
from the scene.
Two passenger cars of Russian peacekeepers passed unhindered
along the Lachin-Khankandi road of Azerbaijan.
Earlier, support vehicles of Russian peacekeepers also passed
through the Lachin-Khankandi road without hindrance.
Previously, the Armenian media spread the news that the
Azerbaijanis [holding a peaceful protest rally near Shusha, close
to the peacekeepers' post] allegedly blocked the Lachin road and
didn't let the supply vehicles through.
The representatives of Azerbaijani non-governmental
organizations have been protesting against the inadmissibility of
Azerbaijani specialists to the territory, to monitor the illegal
exploitation of deposits in the area of stationing the
peacekeepers.
Previously, following the talks with the Russian peacekeepers'
command on December 3 and 7, 2022, a group of experts from the
Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources, the State Property
Service under the Ministry of Economy, and AzerGold CJSC were going
to begin preliminary monitoring of the illicit mineral resource
exploitation, as well as emerging environmental implications on
Azerbaijani lands, where the Russian peacekeepers are temporarily
deployed, on December 10, 2022.
The expert team was expected to inspect the environmental
condition at the 'Gizilbulagh' gold deposit and the 'Damirli'
copper-molybdenum deposit, monitor various areas, organize
cadastral property records, assess potential risks and threats to
the environment, as well as to underground and surface water
sources.
However, when arriving in the monitoring area, the expert group,
accompanied by Russian peacekeepers, faced provocations. The
planned initial inspection and monitoring did not take place due to
the fact that the Russian peacekeepers not only did not create
necessary conditions but also prevented for the entire process to
carry on.
