Karabakh tells Armenians to use new corridor from Aug 31August 29, 2022 - 12:53 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) and Armenia will be connected through a new corridor beginning from August 31, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Karabakh reports. "Traffic on the Berdzor corridor of the interstate highway connecting Artsakh to Armenia will operate until August 31. Russian peacekeepers will ensure the safe movement of citizens during this period," the Ministry said. The corridor through Berdzor (Lachin), currently used as connection between Armenia and Karabakh, was supposed to serve its purpose at least until the fall of 2023, but Azerbaijan built a new road and demanded that the corridor be moved now. Nagorno-Karabakh’s authorities informed the few remaining Armenian residents of the town of Berdzor and the villages of Aghavno and Sus that are situated along the current Lachin corridor that no Russian peacekeepers will be left in the territory after August 25 and, therefore, they needed to leave their homes before the end of the month. However, a top Russian diplomat has said that the peacekeepers were not going to move an inch.
