Karabakh issue
AZERBAIJAN HAS A FALSE IMPRESSION OF KARABAKH'S
POSITION
A new period of discussions of Karabakh settlement has
started in NKR National Assembly. The initiator of the
hearing is the NA foreign relations permanent
committee. After the closed hearings of April 2
Chairman of the Committee Vahram Atanesian and NKR
Foreign Minister Georgi Petrosian met with the
journalists and answered their questions.
According to them, the theme of the hearings was the
precedent of Kosovo. According to the Foreign
Minister, Kosovo may serve as a precedent for other
conflicts mainly for Karabakh settlement.
NA foreign relations permanent committee chairman is
sure that the situation in the negotiation process has
basically changed and NKR Parliament as a
representative body should clarify its position and
level a road for the executive body's corresponding
steps. Karabakh is not obliged to correspond its view
with RA. There aren't permissible or not permissible
means, there is the will of the people and the
representative body should be guided by it.
"Nagorno Karabakh declared its independence 16 years
ago and now the main issue is to protect that
independence", added V. Atanesian.
What about Azerbaijan's approach, our neighboring
country has a false impression of Karabakh's position.
