Nagorno Karabakh can be recognized by Armenia simultaneously with
Russia recognizing Abkhazia and South Ossetia
According to a REGNUM European diplomatic information source, the
official Yerevan may recognize the independence of the Nagorno
Karabakh Republic on August 25. `There is apprehension that Yerevan
may recognize Nagorno Karabakh independence simultaneously with Russia
recognizing Abkhazia and South Ossetia,' the source said.
As it already was reported, the same day Russia might recognize the
independence of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. It will be recalled that
people of Abkhazia on August 21 appealed to the president of Russia,
the Federal Assembly and the State Duma to recognize the independence
of their country. An address on it by the Abkhazian president was
supported by the Abkhazian parliament earlier.
On August 20, North Ossetian MPs promulgated another appeal to Russian
federal authorities with a request for South Ossetia independence
recognition. President of Russia Dmitry Medvedev said before that
Russia would support any solution of the Abkhazian and South Ossetian
conflicts regulation if it was supported by nations of the
unrecognized republics.
