ArmInfo.The Armenian side positively perceived the interim decision of the European Court of Human Rights in connection with the aggravation of the situation in  Nagorno-Karabakh.

As the representative of Armenia to the ECHR Yeghishe Kirakosyan  noted at a briefing on September 30, the ECHR satisfied Armenia's  request for the application of interim measures in connection with  the aggravation of the situation in Nagorno-Karabakh. It is  important, Kirakosyan continued, that the court took into account the  statement and facts of the Republic of Armenia, without even  addressing a request to the other side, in this case, to Azerbaijan,  for urgent receipt of additional information or comments. The last  time the court twice resorted to such a measure in relation to  Ukraine. Despite the fact that the ECHR decision is directed to all  the warring parties, as Kirakosyan noted, it is important that the  ECHR's appeal is based on the facts presented by the Armenian side.  In the next 1-2 days Armenia will submit new data to the court. Now  the Armenian will wait for a response from the government of  Azerbaijan, after which it will make an additional statement. To  remind, the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) ruled on Yerevan's  request for interim measures in connection with the aggravation of  the situation in Nagorno- Karabakh. So, according to the message of  the ECHR, received by ArmInfo, on September 29 a session on this  issue was held, in which 7 judges took part. "Considering that the  current situation creates risks for a serious violation of the  Convention, the ECHR decided to apply Article 39 of the rules of the  court. In order to prevent such violations and in accordance with  Rule 39, the Court called on Azerbaijan and Armenia to refrain from  any measures, in particular military actions, which may entail  violations of the rights of civilians enshrined in the Convention,  including endangering their lives and health, as well as respecting  their obligations under the Convention, especially with regard to  article 2 (right to life) and article 3 (prohibition of torture and  inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment) of the Convention. The  court also invited both contracting parties to inform it as soon as  possible about the measures taken to fulfill their obligations, "-  said in the decision of the ECAC. It is also noted that measures  under Rule 39 of the Rules of Court are taken in connection with  proceedings before the Court, without prejudice to any subsequent  decisions on admissibility or merits. The communication also  emphasizes that the Court will only grant such requests in  exceptional cases where the applicants would otherwise have faced a  real risk of irreversible harm.

As ArmInfo previously reported, on September 27, the Armenian  representation at the ECHR reported that Yerevan had applied to the  European Court of Human Rights with a request to apply interim  measures against Azerbaijan in connection with the aggravation of the  situation in Nagorno-Karabakh. Interim or interim measures means the  prohibition of the defendant to take actions that may lead to the  infliction of irreparable and at the same time substantial harm to  the applicant or the protected interests of citizens. It also became  known that Armenia submitted to the ECHR new facts about the shelling  of settlements, civilian objects and the population by the  Azerbaijani armed forces
