The Azerbaijani “environmental activist leaders” who blocked the Artsakh-Armenia road are directly financed by the Azerbaijani government or organizations affiliated with the authorities. “Tatoyan” Foundation informs.

“This conclusion was reached by the working group established at the Tatoyan Foundation for Law and Justice, after subjecting to a professional analysis the factual data regarding the Azerbaijani eco-activist leaders who blocked the Artsakh-Armenia road.

In case of the other “leaders” of the action, we recorded a similar picture, the real information about which is in the photos.

Therefore, it is absolutely true to claim that blocking the only road connecting Artsakh to Armenia and isolating Artsakh does not have any environmental purpose.

It is part of Azerbaijan’s criminal policy of blocking Artsakh Armenians, isolating them from the outside world, another attempt to suppress the absolute legitimate
