CoE/Presidency of the Committee of Ministers

Iceland's Minister for Foreign Affairs and President of the Council of Europe's Committee of Ministers, Thórdís Kolbrún Reykfjörd Gylfadóttir, has made the following statement:

"I am concerned about the increasingly precarious humanitarian situation of people living in Nagorno-Karabakh as a result of the month-long blockade of the Lachin corridor.

I call on the relevant authorities to quickly restore freedom of movement along the corridor to avoid further deterioration of the situation.

I call on all stakeholders to resolve their concerns through dialogue and remain ready to contribute to their efforts in this regard."
