The unrecognized republics in the former USSR territory, including
Abkhazia, Transdnestrovie and Nagorno Garabagh will choose the way
of Montenegro.
The referendum on Montenegro's independence will be accepted
as precedent by the international law," said Russian State Duma
vice-speaker Vladimir Jirinovski (APA). Participating in the third
congress of Russian Armenians' Union, Jirinovski told journalists
that the so-called "Nagorno Garabagh Republic" can gain independence
by following the Montenegro way.
"One day referendums on independence will be held in the South Caucasus
too. For instance, Garabagh will achieve its independence.
Garabagh has a right to be an independent state. In order not to
offend Baku, Nagorno Garabagh can enter Armenia and have partnership
relations with this state," Jirinovski said.
Azerbaijan's Foreign Ministry Press and Infromation Policy officer
Tahir Taghizadeh told APA that it is not the first time that Jirinovski
makes statements contrary to the Russian Federation's foreign policy
and against the interests of a country that have good relations
with Russia.
"He needs to be more responsible because of his post. Such statements
by Jirinovski have negative influence on the settlement of the Nagorno
Garabagh conflict and are contrary to the developing Azerbaijan-Russia
friendly relations. Jirinovski is making such statements like a norm,"
Taghizadeh noted.
