Members of the Estonia-Armenia Parliamentary Friendship Group of the Riigikogu (Parliament of Estonia) are deeply concerned about the continuing blockade of the Lachin corridor. \u201cThe Lachin corridor is an important supply line for the local population in the region. The humanitarian crisis in the area is worsening day by day due to frequent energy cuts, lack of electricity and gas. The people are also lacking vital supplies: medicine and medical aid, food, and fuel,\u201d the parliamentary group says in its Statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe blockade continues to have damaging impact on the ongoing peace process between Armenia and Azerbaijan. We are deeply convinced that in order to achieve progress, it is very important to resolve humanitarian issues and ensure freedom and security of movement along the corridor.<\/p>\n
We call on parties involved to return to the negotiation table, to contribute to the stability and development in the region,\u201d the members of the Estonia-Armenia Parliamentary Friendship Group write in the Statement.<\/p>\n
The statement has been signed by Chairman of the Group Raivo Tamm<\/strong> and members of the Group Mati Raidma<\/strong>, Mihhail Lotman<\/strong>, Tarmo Kruusim\u00e4e<\/strong> and Leo Kunnas<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Parliamentary friendship groups help the Members of the Riigikogu communicate with other national parliaments, carry out Estonia\u2019s foreign policy, and promote our country around the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Members of the Estonia-Armenia Parliamentary Friendship Group of the Riigikogu (Parliament of Estonia) are deeply concerned about the continuing blockade of the Lachin corridor. \u201cThe Lachin corridor is an important supply line for the local population in the region.
