Nagorno Karabakh-Germany
In Berlin - the capital of Germany the office of the Republic
of Nagorno Karabakh opened this year. It is the 7th after similar
offices in Armenia, France, Russia, USA, Australia and Near East,
mentioned Head of the Office Gayane Apinian.
NKR President Bako Sahakian's degree to open an office in Berlin was
signed in January 2008, informed Mrs.
Apinian and added, "Though the office is not registered there is close
cooperation with German authorities, legislative and executive bodies,
NGOs and political foundations". "This cooperation is formed due to
our 4 years of work", said the head of the office recalling of the
Union of Artsakh Relatives founded by her.
To our question if the events of the Year of Azerbaijan in Germany
in 2008 hamper their office activities, Mrs. Apinian answered that
though she didn't received an invitation to participate in the events,
she participated in two of those events that were well organized and
the Azerbaijanis received her with "restrained respect".
What about the flag, Head of NKR office mentioned that it will be
soon in Berlin and will flutter in the capital of Germany.
We don't know any other unrecognized country to have an office in
Germany. Similar attempt was made by Chechens several years ago but
it didn't become a serious representation.
