DENUNCIATION OF ONCOMING MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS BY CE IS ESTIMATED IN
NKR AS DETACHMENT FROM REALITY
STEPANAKERT, August 6. /ARKA/. Denunciation of oncoming municipal
elections by CE is estimated in NKR as detachment from reality, NKR
MFA press service states, commenting the statement of CE Secretary
General Walter Shwimmer on inadmissibility of oncoming election to
local self-government bodies of NKR scheduled for August 8. `NKR
administration thinks that only legally elected authorities can bare
the responsibility for the territories and have enough authority for
conduction of peaceful negotiations on settlement of the conflict.
That is why the logics that election can have negative impact on
Karabakh settlement is quite hard to understand', press release says.
`More than 10 years as NKR lives as an sovereign state that has
nothing to do with Azerbaijan and independently organizes its life at
the territory that belongs to Karabakh Armenians historically. It
seems that all those international structures that make similar
statements, provide political support to the regime that started a
war against Nagorno Karabakh and till now did not refused of attempts
to use power against NKR. Besides, according to international
experts, Nagorno Karabakh is far ahead of Azerbaijan on the level of
its democratic development', NKR MFA statement says. L.D. --0--
