Russian Peacekeepers' Cars Freely Pass Along Azerbaijan's Lachin-Khankandi Highway
(MENAFN- AzerNews) Since the twelfth day, Azerbaijani non-governmental
organizations (NGO) have been peacefully protesting in Karabakh
near the area where Russian peacekeepers are currently stationed,
Azernews reports.
Russian peacekeepers were traveling in two passenger cars when
they were unimpeded on the Lachin-Khankandi road in Azerbaijan.
Earlier, the Lachin-Khankandi road was open to the support
vehicles of Russian peacekeepers.
Previously, the Azerbaijanis were rumored to have blocked the
Lachin road and prevented supply vehicles from passing because they
were holding a peaceful protest rally close to Shusha, which is
where the peacekeepers' post is located.
Non-governmental organization representatives from Azerbaijan
have been protesting against the fact that Azerbaijani experts are
not allowed on the territory to keep an eye on the illegitimate
exploitation of deposits near where the peacekeepers are
stationed.
To recap, following discussions with the command of the Russian
peacekeeping contingent on December 3 and 7, 2022, Azerbaijani
specialists from the Ministries of Economy, Ecology, and Natural
Resources, the State Service for Property Issues under the Ministry
of Economy, and AzerGold CJSC were to conduct primary monitoring on
illegal exploitation of mineral deposits on Azerbaijani territory.
However, the monitoring failed due to the provocation of ethnic
Armenians.
