Recommendation 2256 (2023)1Provisional version

Ensuring free and safe access through the Lachin Corridor

Parliamentary Assembly

1. Referring to Resolution 2508 (2023) “Ensuring free and safe access through the Lachin Corridor” andrecognising the Committee of Ministers’ role as the guarantor of the protection of human rights within themember States of the Council of Europe, the Parliamentary Assembly draws the Committee of Ministers’attention to the humanitarian and human rights crisis affecting the Armenians living in Nagorno-Karabakh,following Azerbaijan’s unilateral actions at the Lachin corridor in contradiction with the ceasefire agreementsigned on 9 November 2020 by President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev, Prime Minister of theRepublic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan and President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, referred to asthe Trilateral Statement.

2. Regretting that the Assembly Rapporteur was not invited to Azerbaijan and was thus unable to gatherfirst-hand information on the spot, the Assembly requests that a Council of Europe fact-finding mission beorganised to Azerbaijan as early as possible, with the aim of assessing the situation where Armenians liveand have been affected by the absence of a free and safe access through the Lachin corridor since 12December 2022.

3. Acknowledging the feeling of insecurity and threat experienced by the Armenian population living inNagorno-Karabakh, the Assembly believes that the Council of Europe may play an important role in fosteringtrust and dialogue between its two member States, notably through confidence-building measures. It thereforeencourages the Committee of Ministers to develop new activities within the existing action plans or through asui generis co-operation instrument, which would aim, inter alia, to tackle hate speech, in particularunacceptable language and rhetoric employed by members of the Government of Azerbaijan in relation tomembers of the Armenian population, and to contribute to building a climate of tolerance and mutual respect.

1. Assembly debate on 22 June 2023 (18th sitting) (see Doc. 15796, report of the Committee on Migration, Refugeesand Displaced Persons, rapporteur: Mr Paul Gavan). Text adopted by the Assembly on 22 June 2023 (18th sitting).
