President of the European Council Charles Michel’s Cabinet
\nreferred to the need for the unblocking of the Lachin corridor and the direct
\ndialogue between Baku and Stepanakert.
<\/p><\/p>\n
“In line with elements and proposals outlined publicly in
\nour statement on September 1st, 2023, President Michel continued to be closely
\nengaged in advancing those and other approaches, with a primary focus on
\nde-escalation of tensions and the humanitarian situation facing the Karabakh
\nArmenians,” reads the statement.
<\/p><\/p>\n
Michel had telephone conversations with Armenian Prime Minister
\nNikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. He also talked to Turkish
\nPresident Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
<\/p><\/p>\n
As noted in the statement, the situation in Artsakh is
\ndeteriorating quickly, and it is vital to ensure essential products are
\nsupplied to Karabakh Armenians.
<\/p><\/p>\n
“The opening of the Agdam-Askeran route today is an
\nimportant step that should facilitate the reopening also of the Lachin
\ncorridor. We call on all stakeholders to show responsibility and flexibility in
\nensuring that both the Lachin and the Agdam-Askeran route will be used.
<\/p><\/p>\n\n
This difficult situation on the ground has lasted for too
\nlong; it is now important to find sustainable and mutually acceptable solutions
\nto ensure humanitarian access, also ahead of the autumn and winter seasons,”
\nreads the statement.
