Baku is awaiting an official note from the ICRC to open roads through Lachin and Agdam

Baku/17.09.23/Turan:  Baku is ready to organize the parallel use of roads through Lachin and Agdam for the transportation of the International Committee of the Red Cross cargo for Karabakh Armenians, said official representative of the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry Aykhan Hajizade. According to him, Baku received information from the ICRC about the consent of the Armenians to accept cargo on both roads and is now awaiting an official note from the Red Cross.

The proposal for the parallel use of the Lachin-Khankendi and Agdam-Khankendi roads has long been promoted by Azerbaijan and is widely discussed at various levels, official representative of the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry Aykhan Hajizade said on the evening of September 17.

“Unfortunately, despite the agreements reached and calls from international partners, Armenia and the so-called regime it created in the Karabakh region prevented the organization of such a transition. Today, addressing the Azerbaijani side, the ICRC provided preliminary information that on September 18, the opposite side agreed to parallel acceptance of cargo from the Agdam-Khankendi and Lachin-Khankendi roads,” Hajizadeh was quoted as saying in a Foreign Ministry press release.

It is expected that, he continued, “the ICRC will present an official note on this to the Azerbaijani side in the near future.”

“As noted earlier, the Azerbaijani side is ready to organize the parallel use of the Agdam-Khankendi and Lachin-Khankendi roads in compliance with the requirements of national legislation,” Hajizade concluded. -06B-
