/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The referendum on the status of Nagorno Karabakh
should not be postponed for 10-15 years, that is upon completion of
the Azeri President's second tenure of office. Why cannot it be held in
4-5 years after the start of realization of the agreement? Certainly,
the Azeris who used to live in NK and their children who were
born there should vote too. They should be given the right to
return but they should also know under whose power they return.
They can vote distantly (like it was done recently in Milli Mejlis)
to avoid incidents pregnant with upset of the referendum," says the
article PanARMENIAN.Net received from former OSCE MG Russian Co-chair
Vladimir Kazimirov.
"The right to volunteer return of displaced persons and refugees is
one of the axioms of settlement but not for all of the parties. Deep
demilitarization of the territories until the final status of NKR
comes into force is also necessary. The security of the re-settled
people could be ensured by peacekeepers and civil police," he said.
