YEREVAN, JANUARY 17, ARMENPRESS. The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) decided to immediately notify the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe of the interim measure indicated to Azerbaijan at the request of Armenia on 21 Dec 2022 on reopening of Lachin Corridor, the Office of the Representative of Armenia on International Legal Matters Yeghishe Kirakosyan said in a statement.

The ECHR rejected Azerbaijan’s request on interim measures against Armenia and the December 21 decision remains in force.

The Representative of Armenia on International Legal Matters had been providing the ECHR with updated information on the humanitarian crisis in Nagorno Karabakh over the Lachin Corridor and had requested the court to immediately notify the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe on Azerbaijan’s failure to implement the decision.

The ECHR examined the arguments from both parties and completely rejected Azerbaijan’s requests.
