Armenia has sent a letter to the International Court of Justice over the establishment of Azerbaijani checkpoint in the Lachin corridor, Armenia’s representative on international legal matters Yeghishe Kirakosyan said.
According to him, the establishment of the checkpoint is unequivocally a violation of the UN Court’s decision of February 22.
“We sent the letter about the violation to the International Court of Justice this morning. The Court will forward the letter to Azerbaijan, and Azerbaijan will submit its answer, after which we will inform you about the process, because there may be different developments,” Kirakosyan said.
“In the letter we have presented the situation in the Lachin corridor, informing that a checkpoint has been set up, that Azerbaijan is taking concrete actions to block the road, while before it would speak about so-called demonstrators, although no one believed that,” he said.
Yeghishe Kirakosyan says the process will hardly last long, as the Court understands that “we are talking about the lives, lives, health and fundamental rights of over 100,000 people.”
