      Context: The government was supposed to build 12 houses for Shurnukh villagers after half the village was given to the Azeris in the 2020 ceasefire deal. The project has continuously failed to meet the deadlines (they were originally supposed to be completely in **2021**, and that date has been extended I believe 5 times now).

      Yes, I’m aware this is a Sputnik AM journalist, and I’m not happy about it. I also believe his report is factual this time, as it was the previous times, and I’m also unhappy that other “more reputable” sources are turning a blind eye to this issue, leaving figures like David as the only sources to rely on. I’d be very happy to get more better sources in here, to provide more info, but until then I think this issue is important enough to warrant using this source.

      Are diaspora organizations doing anything to try and build stuff for karabakhtcis or people in border areas?

      Seems like this is somewhere they can find common ground with the govt

      Ill wait for the official response rather than rely on some shady journalist’s tweet. These houses seem finished, there’s electricity and new roads and no ongoing construction visible..

      If true, do we know why? This is a small budget for the government so I doubt it’s money, incompetent people? Or maybe internal conflict? It’s such a small project, i can’t understand how something as simple as building houses could go this bad.
