"Blockade in Nagorno-Karabakh: Struggling Residents and Crucial Aid Access"

Armenia and Azerbaijan clashed at a UN Security Council meeting over the blockade of the Lachin Corridor, the only road connecting Nagorno-Karabakh to Armenia, which has left the region facing a humanitarian crisis. Many countries urged Azerbaijan to reopen the road, while all 15 nations called for a diplomatic solution to the long-standing conflict. The International Committee of the Red Cross has been unable to transport food and medicine through the corridor, and Armenia warned of a potential genocide if the situation does not change. Azerbaijan rejected the allegations and accused Armenia of engaging in a provocative campaign. The EU called for the immediate reopening of the corridor.
