French senator Valérie Boyer expresses solidarity with Armenians as blockade of Lachin Corridor passes 100 days
“Azerbaijan has been blocking the Lachin corridor for 100 days, cutting off Nagorno-Karabakh and its 120,000 inhabitants from the rest of the world, in general indifference. I have a thought for all the Armenians and I want to show them once again my solidarity and my deep friendship,” the senator tweeted, along with a photo of herself at the Tsitsernakaberd Memorial in Yerevan during an earlier visit.
Voilà 100 jours que l'#Azerbaïdjan bloque le corridor de Latchin, coupant le Haut-Karabagh et ses 120.000 habitants du reste du monde, dans une indifférence générale. J'ai une pensée pour tous les Arméniens et je veux de nouveau leur témoigner ma solidarité et ma profonde amitié. pic.twitter.com/AlkjQgmTsm— Valérie Boyer (@valerieboyer13) March 21, 2023
