/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The proclamation of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic's
independence was the only salvation for Karabakh and life proved that
we were right. Otherwise we would have shared Nakhichevan's fate,"
NKR President Arkady Ghukasian stated in Stepanakert over the 15th
anniversary of NKR's independence.
In his words, the most important thing is that the people of Karabakh
have achieved their goal. They won the war imposed on them and built
a developing state.
"The recent 15 years symbolize free and independent life. Sometimes
it seems that independence means that we have overcome all the
difficulties bit unfortunately it's not so. We have a long way ahead
and plenty of hardships that is why we mist press for independence
de jure. We face two priority tasks," NKR President said.
The first task, according to Ghukasian, is peace and agreement with
Azerbaijan, the second is the international recognition of the NKR. "I
think we are capable to solve these tasks," he underscored.
When touching upon the possibility of resumption of war, Karabakh
leader remarked that he does not see any reason for it, either
political, economic, moral or geographical.
"I am absolutely sure that now the international community is not
interested in resumption of war. As for Azerbaijan's aggressive
calls, one should just see what they are made for," Ghukasian said,
