HL Deb 24 October 1994 vol 558 cc20-1WA
Lord Hylton

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether, in view of the five-month old ceasefire in Nagorno Karabakh and nearby areas, they will urge the government of Turkey to relax and if possible remove their blockade of the Republic of Armenia.

Baroness Chalker of Wallasey

A peace settlement in Nagorno Karabakh is the best way of persuading all the countries in the region to lift the economic blockades of Armenia and the enclaves of Nagorno Karabakh and Nakhichevan. We are working to this end.
