    Nagorno-Karabakh marks 15th anniversary of independence



    YEREVAN, September 2 (Itar-Tass) - Nagorno-Karabakh marks its 15th
    anniversary of independence on Saturday.

    Nagorno-Karabakh was founded on September 2, 1991.

    `The declaration on Nagorno-Karabakh independence is a brave
    political and legal act, which was adopted in compliance with the
    fundamental norms of the Constitution of the former Soviet Union and
    international law,' Nagorno-Karabakh President Arkady Gukasyan said
    in Stepanakert.

    `Now our efforts are aimed to settle the conflict with Azerbaijan,'
    Gukasyan said. In his view, `the settlement of the Karabakh conflict
    is possible on the basis of mutual compromises. In order to reach any
    compromise the leadership of both sides should show goodwill.'
    Gukasyan confirmed that Karabakh is ready to hold a direct and
    constructive dialogue with Azerbaijan without any preconditions.

    `No one doubts that Nagorno-Karabakh became a real state,' Abkhazian
    President Sergei Bagapsh said in his greetings message.
