Aghdam-Khankandi road open for cargo transportation - presidential rep

Armenia is trying to commit a provocation through the accumulation of vehicles for political manipulation and propaganda at the Lachin checkpoint of the state border, the Azerbaijani State Border Service says.

Azerbaijan has repeatedly stated at various levels that the Aghdam-Khankandi road can be used to transport goods to the territory where Russian peacekeepers are temporarily stationed.

Emin Huseynov, special representative of the Azerbaijani president in the territories liberated from occupation, which are part of the Karabakh economic region, said, Azertac reports.

Emin Huseynov noted further that “it is completely incomprehensible why people, who call themselves representatives of the self-styled regime, are refusing to use the Barda-Aghdam road, which is undergoing reconstruction after occupation and allows goods to be delivered more quickly and efficiently. The purpose is nothing but to stage a political show and speculation. We reiterate that the Aghdam-Khankandi road is open for the transportation of goods.”
