The Bishop of Leeds received the following written answer on 21st June 2021:
The Lord Bishop of Leeds asked Her Majesty’s Government:
- what assessment they have made of any evidence that Azerbaijani troops have been deployed in the Syunik and Gegharkunk provinces in Armenia.
- what representations they have made to the government of Azerbaijan about the movement of Azerbaijani troops at the Armenian border.
- what assessment they have made of the need for a border commission to determine the demarcation between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon (Con, Foreign Office): The UK Government is closely monitoring the situation on the Armenia-Azerbaijan border following an increase in tensions. Through the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe and bilateral engagement in Baku and Yerevan, UK officials continue to urge the Armenian and Azerbaijani authorities to settle all outstanding matters including the peaceful negotiation of their borders.
