Armenia should recognize independence of the unrecognized states,
considering the principle of non-application of double standards in
the issue of the people's right for self determination", said expert
of Mitk analytical center Edward Abramyan.
"Armenia has already witnessed recognition of independence of
two self-declared states, which have much in common with Nagorno
Karabakh. Taking into account the fact that 15 year consultations
between Azerbaijan and Armenia have led to nothing, official Yerevan
should start process of recognition of the self-declared "Nagorno
Karabakh Republic" within its current borders.
After recognition of "Nagorno Karabakh Republic", official Yerevan
should start an active process for gaining recognition of the
self-declared "Nagorno Karabakh Republic" by different countries
of the world", noted Abramyan stressing confidence that the large
Armenian diaspora abroad will assist Armenia in this issue.
He also noted that considering the Caucasus solidarity, traditional
ally relations with Russia and principle of non-application of double
standards in the issue of the nations' right for self-determination,
Armenia should recognize Abkhazia and South Ossetia, which will
probably recognize the so-called "Nagorno Karabakh Republic", being
already the recognized states.
He said in order to soften West's rage following Armenia's recognition
of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, official Yerevan may also recognize
independence of Kosovo.
"Moreover, in order not to worsen the tense external political
situation between Armenia and Turkey, Yerevan can also recognize
independence of Northern Cyprus, which may become a serious factor
for Ankara's neutralization in the conflict with Azerbaijan",
said Abramyan.
