NNA – Caretaker Minister of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants, Dr. Abdallah Bou Habib, on Wednesday met with Armenian Ambassador to Lebanon, Vahagn ATABEKYAN, who requested quot;Lebanon#39;s reaffirmation of its position in support of the reopening of the Lachin corridor.quot;
In turn, Minister Bou Habib expressed his quot;deep concern about the deterioration of the humanitarian situation as a result of the continued closure of the Lachin crossing in Nagorno-Karabakh, which causes humanitarian, health, and livelihood pressure on the population and disrupts commercial movement.quot;
Bou Habib also stressed quot;the importance of providing appropriate conditions for bilateral negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan.quot;
The Minister then reaffirmed the Lebanese Ministry of Foreign Affairsrsquo; position,nbsp; calling for ldquo;the adoption of dialogue as a means of resolving differences, away from the use of civilians or their right to access humanitarian aid as a means of pressure to achieve political goals, and the need to open the Lachin corridor, given its vital importance to the population.quot;
