In an interview with the Azat Artsakh newspaper, Nagorno-Karabakh
Republic President Arkady Ghukasian said that the independence is not
an end in itself but the only condition for the Karabakh people to
prosper on the land of its ancestors, Public Radio reported, citing
the news agency Mediamax.
"We knew that Karabakh's international recognition would be a long
and bumpy road, which also depends on the geopolitical developments
in this region," Ghukasian has said.
He has also added that the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic is a de facto
established state, and many accept that fact.
"We managed to not only defend our independence in a war initiated by
Azerbaijan but also to also overcome its consequences in a relatively
short historic period and build a state that in many aspects, including
democratization, is more advanced that Azerbaijan," according to
Ghukassian.
