Sabina Mammadli read more As the thirty-sixth day of the ongoing picket on the
Lachin-Khankandi road is reaching its end, some 28 vehicles have
passed unhindered along the mentioned road, Azernews reports.
This way, convoys of supply vehicles, trucks, and passenger cars
of Russian peacekeepers have driven along the Lachin-Khankendi road
bypassing the road post near Shusha.
Through thick and thin, despite the freezing weather, the
picketers stand tall demanding an end to the illegal exploitation
of mineral deposits in the Karabakh economic region of
Azerbaijan.
The failure of the Russian peacekeeping contingent to prevent
the illicit exploitation of natural resources in Karabakh has
resulted in the ongoing protest on the major road that bypasses
Shusha.
As a result of the December 3 and 7, 2022, talks with the
Russian peacekeeping command, a delegation comprising specialists
from the Ministries of Economy, Ecology and Natural Resources, the
State Property Service under the Ministry of Economy, and AzerGold
Company was to conduct a preliminary monitoring of the illegal
exploitation of mineral deposits in Karabakh, where peacekeepers
are temporarily stationed, as well as related environmental and
other problems.
However, due to the inaction of the peacekeepers, the monitoring
did not take place and resulted in the continuous protest of the
Azerbaijani eco-activists, thus paving the way for the birth of a
new movement.
