/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia's possible recognition of Kosovo's
independence will not strain the Armenian-Russian relations, RA Prime
Minister and President-elect Serzh Sargsyan said.
"Our relations record a long history but it doesn't think that Armenia
should waive its interests only because our neighbors may be upset,"
he said.
"The Kosovo recognition issue needs serious discussion. We can't view
it as a precedent, since Karabakh gained independence in compliance
with the soviet law and can't be compared with any other conflict,"
he said.
"We do not intend to recognize Nagorno Karabakh's independence in
foreseeable future. However, Armenia has always been an adherent
to the right of nations to self-determination and in this aspect we
welcome Kosovo's independence," the PM said, Novosti Armenia reports.
