U.S. Senator Gary Peters, who arrived in Armenia yesterday, visited the country’s southern Syunik Province and later issued the following X post.

The situation in Nagorno-Karabakh is dire. The Aliyev regime must allow international observers inside now so the world can see exactly what is happening.

Peters and a U.S. Congressional delegation he leads will meet with Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan and other officials to discuss Armenian-U.S. relations and the plight of Karabakh Armenians following the September 19 Azerbaijani offensive.

Reuters has published a video of Peters' visit to the entrance of the Lachin Corridor and his call for Baku to allow international observers to Karabakh.
