    Armenian deputy Larisa Alaverdyan: "Armenia has been losing
    information war with Azerbaijan since 1996"

    30 May 2008 [11:12] - Today.Az

    Armenia has been losing information war with Azerbaijan beginning from
    1996, said deputy of the Heritage parliamentary faction of the
    Armenian National Assembly Larisa Alaverdyan.

    She said the concept of self-determination of Nagorno Karabakh as
    part of Azerbaijan has existed in the talks on the resolution of
    Nagorno Karabakh conflict since formation of the OSCE Minsk Group.

    "Nagorno Karabakh obtained the right for self-determination in 1918
    beyond any dependence on Azerbaijan and preserved this right through
    the whole period of the USSR. Following USSR collapse, the Nagorno
    Karabakh residents won this right by the cost of great losses. In
    these conditions, the aforementioned concept is undoubtedly losing for
    Armenia", noted she.

    The deputy also considers that the issue of strategy on "Nagorno
    Karabakh" is not exhausted today, as the composition of Armenia's
    political elite, defining the country's policy on "Nagorno Karabakh"
    has almost not changed since 1996.

    The deputy stressed that no cardinal steps for definition of the so
    called "Nagorno Karabakh Republic" had been made through the past ten
    years.

    She said this is because Armenian political figures, who make
    declarations on Nagorno Karabakh, including abroad, are not also
    competent. "Therefore, miscalculations often occur in conditions of
    unstable political situation, which is in favor of our opponent", said
    Alaverdyan.

    Moreover, she said the dominant of Azerbaijan's position in the
    international arena, infringes even on Armenia. "I am obliged to state
    with anxiety that the present-day generation of Armenian political
    scientists uses the concepts on Karabakh, of which Azerbaijani side
    take advantage", noted Alaverdyan.
