Armenia sends letter to UN Court over Azerbaijan’s new checkpoint in Karabakh

Armenia has applied to the International Court of Justice regarding the installation by Azerbaijan of a checkpoint on the Hakari bridge at the entrance to the Lachin Corridor, Hasmik Samvelyan, a spokesperson for Armenia’s representative for international legal affairs, told Aysor.am on Wednesday, April 26.

Armenia has argued in a letter sent to The Hague that Azerbaijan's move is a violation of the Court's decision of February 22.

Azerbaijani authorities on Sunday set up a checkpoint on the only road connecting the Karabakh with Armenia. Baku also maintained that they have informed the command of the Russian peacekeepers and the Russian-Turkish monitoring center about the installment of the checkpoint.
