Karabakh says still negotiating resumption of gas supply

March 24 2022

PanARMENIAN.Net - Secretary of the Security Council of Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) Vitaly Balasanyan, with assistance from the Russian peacekeepers, will coordinate efforts aimed at restoring gas supply in the country, the NKR InfoCenter reports.

"The Government of the Republic of Artsakh seeks to resolve this crucial humanitarian issue as soon as possible, and we assurethat all possible measures are being taken in the diplomatic arena, which, of course, are not subject to publicity," the InfoCenter said in a statement from the authorities.

Beginning from March 8, over 100,000 residents in Karabakh were deprived of gas for over 10 days, and because the pipeline was damaged in territories currently under Baku's control, the Azerbaijani military would not allow the Armenian side to eliminate the problem. Gas supply resumed on March 19, only to be interrupted again on March 22.

The Azerbaijan armed forces have also been violating the ceasefire and using loudspeakers to spread panic among the population of Nagorno-Karabakh, attempting to force them to leave their homes.
