UN Secretary-General expects Azerbaijan, Armenia to fully abide by the humanitarian truce

The UN Secretary-General on Sunday condemned “all attacks on populated areas” in and around the Nagorno-Karabakh zone of conflict after the latest humanitarian ceasefire agreement was violated. In a statement released by his Spokesperson, António Guterres reiterated that “indiscriminate attacks on populated areas anywhere, including in Stepanakert and other localities in and around the immediate Nagorno-Karabakh zone of conflict”, were likewise totally unacceptable.
 
“The Secretary-General deeply regrets that the sides have continuously ignored the repeated calls of the international community to immediately stop the fighting”, said the statement.
 
Mr. Guterres also “underscored again in his latest calls with the Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan, both sides have the obligation under international humanitarian law to take constant care to spare and protect civilians and civilian infrastructure in the conduct of military operations.
 
“The Secretary-General notes the latest announcement on the start of the humanitarian truce on 18 October and expects both parties to fully abide by this commitment and resume substantive negotiations without delay under the auspices of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs”, the statement concluded.
