BAKU, Azerbaijan, August 17. If Armenia really
thought about the ordinary residents of the region, then it would
never object to the delivery of goods to the Karabakh region along
the Aghdam-Khankendi road, Azerbaijan’s permanent representative to
the UN Yashar Aliyev said at a meeting of the organization’s
Security Council, Trend reports.
“This road is connected to one of Azerbaijan’s main transport
routes, the highway known as the Silk Road or M2, which provides
reliable links to international markets. Compared to the 59 km
Lachin-Khankendi road, which runs through mountain serpentines, the
length of this the road between Aghdam and Khankendi is only 18 km.
Today, as part of a trip to Aghdam, representatives of the
diplomatic corps accredited in Azerbaijan, including the office of
the UN Resident Coordinator and other UN structures, witnessed the
functioning of the road and its readiness for the transport of
goods,” – he said.
Following the tripartite statement dated November 10, 2020,
Azerbaijan has confidently stated and continues to repeatedly
declare on almost all platforms that Baku guarantees the rights and
security of the Armenian population of Karabakh at the highest
level. All their rights will be ensured in accordance with the
Constitution of Azerbaijan.
A meeting of the UN Security Council was held today on the basis
of an unfounded request from the Armenian state regarding the
alleged creation by the Azerbaijani side of a “humanitarian crisis”
against Armenians in Karabakh. And this time, the slanderous
campaign of the Armenian side against Azerbaijan failed.
