On October 4, Upper Lars checkpoint will resume its work, Spokesman for Armenian Foreign Ministry Tigran Balayan told NEWS.am.

At today’s press conference Georgian FM Grigol Vashadze said that there is no oral or written order to close the Upper Lars checkpoint. It might have been temporarily closed for technical reasons.

As NEWS.am reported previously, in mid September, Georgian cars heading from Russia to Armenia faced problems with crossing the Upper Lars checkpoint. Particularly, the traffic was suspended on the Russian-Georgian border for two and a half days.

On October 3, Georgian FM arrived on a two-day visit to Armenia.
