Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris, posted a photo taken in Armenia and made a respective note on X—former Twitter.
"[I am] in Armenia with the elected officials of Paris and other communities. 120,000 Armenians of Artsakh [(Nagorno-Karabakh)], including 30,000 children, have been isolated, starving, and deprived of everything for nine months. Due to this humanitarian catastrophe, we are providing them with emergency aid. There is little time left," Hidalgo wrote.
The Armenian government has sent 361 tons of humanitarian aid to Nagorno-Karabakh, but the convoy of trucks carrying this aid has been waiting at the entrance to the Lachin corridor since July 26 because Azerbaijan is blocking their entry into Nagorno-Karabakh.
The first truck with humanitarian aid from France had joined the aforesaid convoy on August 9.
The mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, arrived in Armenia Wednesday to visit the starting point of the Lachin corridor, and to accompany the convoy with humanitarian cargo from France.
