Armenia – July 1 2022

PanARMENIAN.Net - Ombudsman of Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) Gegham Stepanyan has said that people who might be displaced once a new corridor connecting Karabakh to Armenia is ready will either be resettled in other communities of Artsakh or Armenia.

If it comes to resettlement, Stepanyan said, the residents of the village of Aghavno will move to the villages of Hin Shen and Mets Shen in Karabakh, while the residents of Berdzor might receive housing in Armenia.

"Residents of Kashatagh can make us of preferential conditions for obtaining apartments in Armenia,” Stepanyan said.

Stepanyan's comments came days after Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan revealed that there is a "preliminary understanding" that Lachin corridor connecting Armenia to Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) will be changed. Asked what will happen to the residents of communities in the current corridor, Pashinyan said those territories will pass under the control of Azerbaijan.
