UK is not aware of plans for a UN Security Council resolution or statement on Nagorno-Karabakh

The UK Embassy in Armenia has responded to “Armenpress” that the United Kingdom is not aware of plans for a UN Security Council resolution or statement on the humanitarian situation in Nagorno-Karabakh.

Question: Does your country plan to submit a draft resolution following the UN Security Council urgent meeting of August 16 regarding the humanitarian situation in Nagorno-Karabakh?

Answer: The United Kingdom remains deeply concerned at the ongoing disruptions to the Lachin corridor, which threatens the supply of life-saving medication, health care, and other essential goods and services – resulting in humanitarian consequences for the local population.

It is therefore crucial that the ICJ order of February 2023 is respected to ensure unimpeded movement along the Lachin corridor in both directions. The UK is not aware of plans for a UN Security Council resolution or statement.
