PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Nagorno Karabakh: Armed Forces (16 March 2021)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment he has made of reports that Armenia is covertly transporting armed men to the Nagorno Karabakh region of Azerbaijan in breach of the Ceasefire Agreement of 10 November 2020.

Asked by:
Bob Blackman (Conservative)

Answer

The UK Government is concerned by reports that armed persons are being transported into Nagorno-Karabakh. During my recent visit to Armenia and Azerbaijan I urged both Governments to fully comply with the November ceasefire agreement and to refrain from unhelpful actions that may exacerbate the situation. The UK Government continues to support the efforts of the OSCE Minsk Group to settle all outstanding matters related to the conflict.
