Personal Representative of OSCE Chairman-in-Office visits entrance of Lachin Corridor to prepare report

YEREVAN, AUGUST 25, ARMENPRESS. Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk, the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office has visited the entrance of the Lachin Corridor in the village of Kornidzor in Armenia’s Syunik Province to become acquainted with the situation around the corridor and brief the OSCE Chairman-in-Office.

An Armenian humanitarian aid convoy, as well as emergency supplies sent by French regions, for Nagorno-Karabakh have been stranded at the entrance of the Lachin Corridor for nearly a month because Azerbaijan refuses to allow passage amid its ongoing illegal blockade of the Lachin Corridor, which has resulted in a humanitarian crisis in Nagorno-Karabakh.

Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk told reporters that he’s visiting the entrance of the Lachin Corridor at the instruction of Chairperson-in-Office of the OSCE Bujar Osmani.

“A press release was issued about this. I’m instructed to visit the adjacent regions of the Lachin Corridor, get acquainted with the situation and report to him. I’ve had many meetings yesterday, and today as you can see I am here, I will return to report on the situation,” Kasprzyk said.

Kasprzyk met with Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan on August 22.
