U.S. Department of State advises its citizens to exercise caution on roads near Armenia’s border with Azerbaijan, not to travel to Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued a Level 4 Travel Health Notice for Armenia due to COVID-19, indicating a very high level of COVID-19 in the country, U.S. Department of State said in a statement, noting that there are restrictions in place affecting U.S. citizen entry into Armenia.
The Department of State also advised not to travel to the Nagorno-Karabakh region and surrounding territories due to recent hostilities.
"Casualties continue to occur following intensive fighting in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict that occurred in the fall 2020. The U.S. government is unable to provide emergency services to U.S. citizens in and around Nagorno-Karabakh as access is restricted.
Exercise caution on roads near Armenia’s border with Azerbaijan. Be aware that some portions of the road may cross international boundaries without notice. Roads may be controlled by checkpoints or closed to travelers without notice,” the statement says.
