Artsakh HRD Gegham Stepanyan informed that the people of Artsakh have been under siege for 24 hours, cut off from the possibility of communication with the outside world.
"The Azerbaijanis closed the Stepanakert-Goris road, which is the only one, with false environmental reasons. The created situation leads to catastrophic humanitarian consequences: the supply of food, energy sources, medicine, and necessary food has been stopped, thousands of people are in isolation, and about 1100 people are left on the road in cold winter conditions without the opportunity to join their families, including 270 children currently educated are from their families.
This is another manifestation of the Azeri ethnic hatred policy, which aims to terrorize the people of Artsakh, to extract concessions from Artsakh on various vital issues under the existential threat, and to impose its will. These are large-scale and gross violations of human rights, regarding which there has been no proper international response until now. I expect the enthusiastic reaction of international actors; people should not be ignored, regardless of geopolitical realities and states' political and economic interests," he wrote on his Facebook page.
