According to speaker of Armenian Parliament Tigran Torosyan, who
visited unrecognized "Nagorno Karabakh Republic", execution of the
right for self-determination of "the people of Nagorno Karabakh"
was blameless.
The declaration of main principles of international law fixes that
the self-determining people may choose between three options of
self-determination by its own will, not by the will of Azerbaijan
or any other state: separation and annexation with another country,
separation and declaration of independence or any other political
status, the people wills to choose", said Torosyan upon completion
of the commission on inter-parliamentary cooperation of the so-called
"Nagorno Karabakh Republic" and Armenia.
"In this context one of the concessions made to Azerbaijan by the
people of Nagorno Karanakh, is declaration of independence and we
respect this concession", said Torosyan.
He said, execution of right for self-determination by "the people
of Nagorno Karabakh" was blameless and "there is hardly a similar
example in the world history, or in the period, when the right for
self-determination was declared a norm of international law, which
has a supreme status".
Touching upon the recognition of the so-called "Nagorno Karabakh
Republic" by Armenia, Torosyan noted: "Armenia's recognition of Nagorno
Karabakh is not a problem. This can be made any time. Yet this should
not be a single action. We will do the due step when time comes".
According to the speaker, the current opportunities of the Armenian
side "are not compared with opportunities, which existed in the late
1980 and early 1990s". "We are able to protect our two states and
our people", said Torosyan.
