13:24:56 - 24/12/2008
A group of NGOs and individuals have written a letter to the mass
media of Armenia. They evoke the December 9 letter of a group of
NKR-based youth organizations to the president of Armenia urging to
replace the map of the former Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region in
the weather forecast by the map of Armenia and NKR.
The authors of the letter condemn the absurd situation that has emerged
14 years after signing the cease-fire. On the one hand, thousands of
Armenians live in NKR which now includes some regions of the former
Soviet Azerbaijan, on this other hand, this reality is not reflected in
the Armenian mass media, weather forecast and commercials. Moreover,
they note, it is a violation of the NKR Constitution Article 142 of
which holds that public administration is carried out in the territory
controlled by Nagorno-Karabakh Republic until the restoration of
territorial integrity of Nagorno-Karabakh Republic.
The authors of the letter announce that the Armenian mass media do
not convey the reality, ignore the interests of our compatriots living
in the liberated territories, and indirectly support the Azerbaijani
propaganda machine in the information and psychological war against
the Armenians. The developments in the liberated territories, the
everyday life of the people living in the liberated territories are
not covered by the Armenian mass media.
They urge the mass media not to avoid the current borders of NKR,
which are set down in the NKR constitution, cover the life of the
population of the liberated territories, their problems, educate and
inform the citizens of Armenia about the strategic importance of the
liberated territories.
