YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 28, ARTSAKHPRESS. The functioning of the Lachin Corridor must comply with the 9 November 2020 trilateral statement, it does not envisage any checkpoints, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said at a joint press conference with his Azeri counterpart Jeyhun Bayramov, TASS reports.
“[The Lachin corridor] functioning mode must be in full compliance with the 9-10 November 2020 trilateral statement, which means the need to ensure the free movement of exclusively civilian and humanitarian cargo and civilians. That’s what we are striving for, first of all through the Russian peacekeeping contingent. It is not envisaged to create any checkpoints there,” Lavrov said.
