BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 22. The Russian peacekeeping mission fulfills its obligations on monitoring the situation in the Lachin corridor, said Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commenting on the statement of Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan about the alleged failure of peacekeepers to fulfill their tasks, Trend reports via TASS.
"I can say the opposite; Russian peacekeepers are fulfilling their mission," she said, answering the question.
Since the beginning of the peaceful protest of Azerbaijanis in the temporary deployment zone of the Russian peacekeeping contingent in Karabakh against the illegal exploitation of Azerbaijani minerals by Armenians, the Armenian segment of social networks and the Armenian media have not stopped replicating fake news.
One recent fake has to do with "food deficit" in the city, which is another fake, this time echoed by Armenia's PM Nikol Pashinyan, who said recently that a food deficit allegedly began in Karabakh "because of the blocking" of the Lachin road.
Accusing Azerbaijan of the "blockade", Pashinyan claims that the humanitarian situation in Karabakh remains extremely tense, although every day, sometimes several times a day, supply vehicles, humanitarian convoys, and ambulances pass along the same road, and there are many photos and videos confirming this.
