On 30-31 January, the hearings on the Armenia vs. Azerbaijan and Azerbaijan vs. Armenia cases were held at the International Court of Justice. Both parties justified their requests for temporary measures, their justifications, and then presented objections to each other’s requests.
It should be reminded that Armenia requested to apply the following temporary measures:
- Azerbaijan must stop organizing and supporting alleged “protests” that are blocking unhindered free movement in both directions through the Lachin Corridor.
- Azerbaijan should ensure uninterrupted free movement of all people, vehicles and cargo along the Lachin Corridor in both directions.
- Azerbaijan must immediately fully restore and refrain from disrupting or obstructing the supply of natural gas and other utilities to Nagorno Karabakh.
The International Court of Justice left for the deliberation room to make a decision.
After making the decision, the Court will read it during an open and online broadcast session.
The Court will inform the parties about the date of reading the decision. According to the Court, the decision should be taken as soon as possible.
