    ALEXANDER MANASIAN: "LEGAL FACTS BENEFICIAL FOR US FORCED OUT OF POLITICAL PROCESS IN KARABAKH ISSUE"

    YEREVAN, APRIL 6, NOYAN TAPAN. The Republic of Nagorno Karabakh was
    created in a territory that hadn't belonged to Azerbaijan. Doctor,
    Professor Alexander Manasian, the Chief of the YSU Theoretical
    Philosophy Department stated about it at the April 5 meeting with
    journalists, emphasizing that this fact, complete from the legal
    side, must be observed as the basic one, making the international
    norm of nations' self-determination insignificant. "There is no
    doubt that the Karabakh issue is internationally made political:
    the problem is that our statesmen have thought since the 90ths that
    using political tools means refusal of the legal facts. That's why
    all legal facts beneficial for the Armenian part were forced out of
    the political process," Professor Manasian mentioned. According to
    him, both for political reasons and due the strength of the legal
    factors, the argument of self-determination must be given less
    importance than now. Besides, usage of the principle of nations'
    self-determination is fraught with the danger that numerous countries
    cannot definitely defend the position of the Armenian party, as they
    have similar problems. Alexander Manasian invited one's attention also
    to the circumstance that Azerbaijan has lost moral right to pretend
    on Karabakh. According to him, authorities of Baku have conducted
    policy of genocide against Armenians of Azerbaijan, among them of
    Artsakh during the Soviet years. This policy, obviously or disguised,
    has been conducted in the way of economic and political persecutions,
    finally being turned into blood-shed conducted in Sumgait. According
    to the speaker, Azerbaijan continues the policy of Turkey in the issue
    of Genocide: "We ourselves separated it into two issues, separating
    the Armenians' Genocide taken place in the Ottaman Empire from the one
    taken place in Azerbaijan, whereas these are two stages of one and the
    same Genocide, conducted by two Turkish states on the basis of the same
    PanTurkish policy," Manasian emphasized. According to him, even today,
    when Armenians ar e going to mark the 90th anniversary of the Great
    Genocide, this question is not raised and the Diaspora implements
    lobbing only in the issue of recognition of the 1915 Genocide.
