In this episode, we look at the blockade of the Lachin Corridor, the only road that connects the Armenian-majority breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabagh to Armenia. The blockade is limiting food, medicine and other essential supplies and trapping 120,000 people. What is the importance of this blockade to the Armenia-Azerbaijan peace process, and also to the region? To help us understand the humanitarian and political implications to this blockade, we are joined by Dr. Anna Ohanyan.
Anna Ohanyan is the Richard B. Finnegan Distinguished Professor of Political Science and International Relations at Stonehill College. She is the editor of Russia Abroad: Driving Regional Fracture in Post-Communist Eurasia and Beyond and her latest book The Neighborhood Effect: The Imperial Roots of Regional Fracture in Post-Communist Eurasia.
