/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Being a historic Armenian territory Nagorno Karabakh
has made logical attempts to join Armenia by legal way. The cultural
and religious center of Armenia, Karabakh was ruled by Armenian dukes
even during the period when the rest of Armenia was under the yoke of
Turkish and Persian empires", Yeni Zaman Azeri newspaper writes, citing
the reports of the Central Intelligence Agency of 1970-1980. The fact
is that the US National Geographic Center has recently issued a map,
on which Karabakh is not marked as a part of Azerbaijan. Weighing 5
kg and costing $165 the map shows Karabakh as a disputable territory
like the territories on the western coast of River Jordan, Northern
Cyprus, Abkhazia and South Ossetia. Zerkalo daily also expressed
discontent over the fact.
