Armenia parliament deputy speaker from opposition: We will lose road to Berdzor (Lachin)

Armenia –

An alternative road is being built by Azerbaijan, to which it seems that [Armenian PM] Nikol [Pashinyan] and [Azerbaijani President Ilham] Aliyev have a conspiratorial agreement that we will lose today's Berdzor (Lachin) road. Resistance Movement coordinator Ishkhan Saghatelyan—the National Assembly deputy speaker from the opposition "Armenia" Faction and a representative of the Supreme Body of the opposition Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF) Dashnaktsutyun Party of Armenia—stated this during Friday’s press conference at France Square in downtown Yerevan.

"That is, a bypass road is being built to [Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) capital] Stepanakert, which is being built now and will be put into operation in 2-3 months. If that road works, it means that we will completely lose the Berdzor region (…). Most importantly, all our utilities—that is, [natural] gas, electricity—will fall under the control of the enemy. This means we will be in complete dependence, and what we were saying the 'de-Armenianization of Artsakh,' we also mean this. This is another conspiratorial plan," Saghatelyan said.
