1,200 Armenian trucks in queue at Upper Lars checkpoint

ArmInfo. The situation at  the Upper Lars checkpoint continues to be difficult.

According to the North Ossetia Traffic Management Center, there are  currently 4,292 trucks at the checkpoint, 1,200 of which are  Armenian. The reason for the accumulation of cars was bad weather,  which led to traffic jams, despite the fact that the Gudauri-Kobi  section of the Mtskheta-Stepatsminda-Lars interstate road is open to  all types of vehicles.

The road to Lars is the only land route connecting Armenia with the  Russian Federation.
