NAGORNO KARABAKH PRESIDENT VISITED DETROIT WITHIN HIS VISIT TO USA
STEPANAKERT, NOVEMBER 19. ARMINFO. If Goris-Lachin-Stepanakert highway
is the road of life for Nagorno Karabakh, the North-South highway will
become one of the most important elements for economic development of
Nagorno Karabakh, the president of NKR Arkadi Ghukassian told a public
forum in Detroit with the participation of Armenian community in the
city.
The chief information administration services affiliated to NKR
president told ARMINFO that Ghukassian arrived in Detroit on Nov 17
from New York on the occasion of a telethon slated on Nov 25 to raise
money for North-South highway. The raised money will be spent on the
construction of the highway which has strategic meaning for Karabakh
and connects all regions of the republic to each other.
NKR president called on all Armenians to take part in the telethon and
contribute to the social economic development of the republic. The
Armenian community voiced his support to the democratization process
and civil society development in NKR, economic reform and revival of
spiritual values in the republic. The participants voiced their
belief that the current achievements of Karabakh determine the current
attitudes among the Armenian community to render their support to the
economy of the republic.
Similar attitudes were expressed at Nov 18 meeting of Ghukassian with
the faculty and students of Michigan university. The gathered were
especially interested in Karabakh conflict regulation. Ghukassian
reiterated that Karabakh is principally for peaceful regulation of the
conflict with Azerbaijan which unlike Karabakh tries to use force. If
Azerbaijan seriously thought about peace, it would enter into direct
negotiations with Karabakh," Ghukassian stated.
During the meeting at schools after Aleg and Mari Manukians, it was
underscored to establish closer contacts between Armenian schools of
USA and Karabakh.
The same day, a reception was held in the house of Marta and Diana
Shushanians in the honor of the president where most influential
members of Armenian community in Detroit were invited. -A-
