FORUM ON KARABAKH PROBLEM DECIDES TO DEVELOP ACTION PROGRAM
YEREVAN, MARCH 21, NOYAN TAPAN. "The Karabakh problem is unduly
politicized, unsuccessful negotiations are continuing, making
it possible for Azerbaijan to falsify the history," chairman of
the Democratic Party of Armenia Aram Sargsian said at the March 18
forum on the Karabakh problem. According to him, as a result of this,
Nagorno Karabakh is considered an "occupied territory", the Armenians
of Karabakh living in their cradle are qualified as "secessionists",
while the Armenian people and the Armenian statehood as "aggressors
and invaders". The speaker noted that in recent years the essence of
the Karabakh problem has been distorted at international instances,
and at various discussions it is presented as just a territorial
dispute between Armenia and Azerbaijan. The forum , which was
organized by the steering committee "For Defence of NKR" and attended
by representatives of the public and a number of political forces,
adopted a resolution on behalf of the Armenian public. It is noted
in the resolution that certain high-ranking officials continue to
assert with a dangerous and unreasonable optimism that "nothing has
happened, there is no threat to Artsakh." "The Armenian public does
not share such a dangerous position," the document says. The forum
participants demand that a summary documemt (diplomatic note) on the
essence of the problem and the state position on it be presented on
the official level to the international community and the intermediary
states and organizations. The historical and legal bases, as well as
unquestionable arguments for the NKR formation in accordance with the
norms of international law and its independence from Azerbaijan should
be laid out in the document. The forum participants also considered
it necessary, for ensuring the participation of the whole Armenian
people in the solution of the Karabakh problem, to develop a concept
and implement an action program, for which purpose a center should
be set up to coordinate the program implementation. The RA National
Assembly is proposed it should recognize the NKR's total independence
based on the legal and international norms.
