EU representative dismisses report of EU monitoring mission at Lachin road

EU Monitoring Capacity (EUMCAP) operates exclusively on Armenian territory, EU Special Representative for the South Caucasus and the crisis in Georgia Toivo Klaar said.

According to Klaar, there’s a video circulating about an EUMCAP patrol observing the area leading to the Lachin road. “The patrol was then at a checkpoint about 1,2 km from the Armenian-Azerbaijani border,” he said.

The EU special representative pointed out that EUMCAP, in line with its mandate, operates exclusively on Armenian territory and did not enter the Lachin road.
