Due to the establishment of a border checkpoint in Lachin, the action of eco-activists near Shusha has been suspended
Baku/28.04.23/Turan: Due to the establishment of a border checkpoint in Lachin on the border with Armenia on April 23, the action of eco-activists, which began on December 12, 2022 on the Lachin-Khankendi road, is being terminated. This decision was made by the participants of the action on April 28 at a meeting with representatives of the government of the country in Shusha.
During the meeting, the eco-activists noted that the action did not fully achieve its goal and they demanded that the command of the peacekeeping contingent stop the illegal exploitation of natural resources in Karabakh and allow their monitoring.
Following the discussions, the eco-activists adopted a statement in which, in particular, it was said that the establishment of a Border checkpoint in Lachin on April 23 created a mechanism to ensure transparency, legality and safety on the Lachin-Khankendi road. "This means that the participants of the action have partially achieved their goals." For this reason, from 18 o'clock on April 28, the action of eco-activists "temporarily" stops.
"We declare that our demands to the command of the peacekeeping contingent to stop the illegal exploitation of mineral deposits in the territories of Azerbaijan, where the Russian peacekeeping contingent is temporarily located, and to ensure monitoring of environmental and other consequences remain in force, and if these requirements are not met, we reserve the right to resume the action!", the statement reads. ---02D---
