The World Court ruling confirms that Azerbaijan’s blockade of the Lachin Corridor is against international law and must end immediately, U.S. Congressman Frank Pallone said in a tweet.

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) on Wednesday ordered Azerbaijan to “take all steps at its disposal” to allow free movement of traffic along the Lachin Corridor, the only road between Armenia and Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) blocked since December 12.

“The State Department and our allies must ensure that Aliyev abides by the ruling and allows the free flow of people and goods to/from Artsakh,” Pallone said.
