Artsakh has been under siege for 206 days.

The International Medical Congress of Armenia was supposed to be held in Artsakh on July 6-8 of this year.

However, due to the blockade, it is impossible to organize the expected event in Artsakh. It is also impossible to ensure the direct participation of Artsakh specialists.

According to the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Artsakh, doctors from Artsakh will participate in the conference remotely.

On 5 July, 15 patients from the “Republican Medical Center” CJSC of the Ministry of Health of the Artsakh Republic, together with their persons accompanying them, were transferred to specialized medical centers of the Republic of Armenia with the mediation and accompaniment of the International Committee of the Red Cross.

According to Artak Beglaryan, Advisor to the State Minister of the Artsakh Republic, in these difficult conditions, what the Armenians of Artsakh lack most is not so much food, fuel or other material means, but practical attention.

“Today is RA Constitution Day and my birthday. Artak Beglaryan, advisor to the former Minister of State of the Republic of Artsakh, wrote on his Facebook page.

In these difficult conditions, what the Armenians of Artsakh lack most is not so much food, fuel or other material means, but practical attention. Of course, the main cross in this struggle is borne by the Armenians of Artsakh, assuming their share of national responsibility, but we expect attention primarily from the Armenian people and the Armenian state, as the owner and main beneficiary of Artsakh. During the blockade, there were many initiatives to support Artsakh, and we are grateful to the authors and participants of all of them,” he wrote.

On July 5, President of the Republic of Artsakh Arayik Harutyunyan held a meeting to discuss the operational military-political and humanitarian situation, the necessary actions to be taken by the authorities.

Urgent and effective action is urgently needed from all responsible actors, each within their respective responsibilities. Given the alarming situation we face, the people of Artsakh and the authorities expect concrete results in the shortest possible time to alleviate the security and humanitarian situation and lift the blockade. We are making every effort to manage the situation within our limited capabilities, implementing action plans based on various scenarios. In this context, I want to emphasize that the Republic of Artsakh remains committed to a constructive approach and is prepared to discuss and resolve all issues through civilized dialogue and peaceful means,” added Arayik Harutyunyan.
