18/09/2023 (Agence Europe) – The President of the European Council, Charles Michel, welcomed, on Monday 18 September, the simultaneous passage of humanitarian freight via the Lachin corridor and the Agdam road for the Karabakh Armenians. “This must now be regularised”, he said on X (formerly Twitter). He considered it essential that talks be initiated between Azerbaijan and the Karabakh Armenians on their rights and security, which the EU stands ready to support. For his part, the spokesman for the European External Action Service, Peter Stano, said that it was now “important to ensure regular supplies to the population, to have a meaningful dialogue between Baku and the Karabakh Armenians and to decrease tensions on the line of contact and the international border”.
