Regnum, Russia
May 26 2006
Respect for the right of nations to self-determination will provide
for security in the region
The Nagorno Karabakh Foreign Ministry has released a statement in
connection with a referendum on Montenegro independence. REGNUM
publishes English translation of the text.
"Referendum on Montenegro independence and readiness of the
international community to recognize its outcome are a positive fact
on the whole. We are sure that respect for the right of a nation to
self-determination realized by means if a nation-wide referendum is a
corner stone in settling such situations and an effective instrument
for establishing political stability in the conflict region.
"In this connection it is worth reminding that disrespect for the
right of the Nagorno Karabakh people, who voted at a referendum for
its independence on December 10, 1991, was taken as basis for further
direct military aggression by Azerbaijan against the Republic of
Nagorno Karabakh that brought about numerous human deaths and damage.
"Further ignoring of the NKR people right for self-determination in the
Azerbaijani-Karabakh conflict and achieving conditions, under which its
political independence, economic and military safety is secured, would
put off the prospect of finding a mutually admissible decision and
establishment of lasting peace and mutual understanding in the region."
