/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Bakour Karapetyan, the leader of the Movement
for Justice, writer and publicist addressed an open letter to the
President of the United States, Mr. Barack Obama.
The letter says:
"H.E. Mr. Barack Obama
Please, accept my sincere congratulations on your victory, and I
greatly believe in the changes and in the foundation of justice.
The political elite of the Republic of Armenia found itself in the
diplomatic trap after the Karabakh-Azerbaijan war, so it acts as
an opposite party with Azerbaijan in Minsk Group format or in other
negotiations. However, the international society interprets this fact
as if Armenia which is neighboring Azerbaijan, has occupied a part
of Azerbaijan territory. Proceeding from this situation Azerbaijan
appears as a claimer against the Armenia "aggression". This is the
very case where the restoration of the territorial integrity of the
countries subjected to aggression, considers to be prior. This is the
reason that Azerbaijan gets opportunity to make warlike announcements,
to threaten Armenia with war, and to effect on the international
opinion. As a result of the called situation, UN made non favorable
decisions for Karabakh, and the diplomatic problems of the Armenian
party proceeds. Azerbaijan calculated that if NKR is accepted as an
opposition and negotiating party, then according to the 2nd paragraph
of the 1st article of the UN Charter clause which says; "Equal rights
and self-determination are the most fundamental principles" Azerbaijan
will suffer a diplomatic loss in addition to the military defeat. This
is the case where the self-determination nation (the Karabakh nation)
can decide on which of the self-determination cases to choose; a)
forming an independent state, b) uniting with an independent state,
c) another political status. The right of self-determination also
superiors with the 1st paragraph of the 1st article on the political,
economic, social and cultural rights adopted by UN human right
convection in December, 1966. The "chief list" of the final act of
Helsinki OSCE advisory meeting of August 1, 1975, confirmed the
"equal rights and self-determination rights for all the nations"
as the 8th principle adding that "the free self-determination of
the nations is a vitally necessary issue and it can not be limited
with only the colonial territories of the third world, but it also
refers to Europe". In fact, the free self-determination right is a
universal rule of the international law. Taking all this very point
into consideration Azerbaijan and Turkey pushed the NRK out of the
negotiating procedure as an opposition party, in stead, including the
Republic of Armenia. Whereas, the RA must only act as an intermediary
for the resolution of NK issue, and a security providing patron
to a part of its nation in danger, and make NKR authorities known
as a negotiating party among the international offices. In 1988,
the Karabakh liberating movement with the help of protests and mass
meetings aimed to bring its issue to the Kremlin and the international
public, to reach its goal of coming out of Azerbaijan form with the
constitutional way. According to the 3rd article of the law adopted
on April 3, 1990, by the USSR Supreme Council "about the resolution
of the issues connected to the Union Republic coming out of the USSR",
which allows the Union Republic come out of the USSR form, the people
of the Nagorno Karabakh, proceeding from the low requirements, held
referendum on December 19, 1991, and became self-determinate. The
political elite of Azerbaijan in this case feeling its loss, decided
to affect on it by the vandalism and terrorism. It was followed by the
slaughter of the whole Armenians in Sumgait, Gandzak-Kirovabad, Baku,
Gardmanq (Northern Karabakh), the blockade of Nagorno Karabakh and
surrendering it by assaults, and enclosing the interior forces. NK
had to establish a self-defending army which managed to defeat the
Azerbaijan exceedingly armored and numbered army, and liberated its
territories, destroyed the weapon emplacements, directed the battle
line, founded the security zone. This zone has been providing peace
in the territory for already 14 years.
Azerbaijan had war against Nagorno Karabakh, and if one fights against
somebody in the war it means that he recognizes him as a protesting
party. If Azerbaijan was defeated in the war which was set forth by
him, it does not give him right to refuse to negotiate with the other
party. And if the presence of the NKR is rejected, the negotiations
will never get any result. This is the truth. Finally, we must not
forget that Azerbaijan and NKR representatives included the truce
as these nations actually had war against each other. First, the NKR
was accepted as a negotiating party, however, it was soon pushed out
also by the fault of the OSCE, and they all compromised Azerbaijan's
want. And now, the right of acting as a subject of Nagorno Karabakh
has again been ignored during the tripartite Moscow meeting. Moreover,
Turkey was gradually being involved in negotiations, which openly
acted on the Azerbaijani side.
The national policy, injustice divisions which include the adjoining
of Azerbaijan, Nagorno Karabakh and Nakhijevan of Lenin and Stalin
has often been blamed by the international offices, which meanwhile
intensively protect the borders defined by them.
The Movement for Justice asks You for assisting the restoration of
the Nagorno Karabakh nation's infringed right and to recognize Nagorno
Karabakh as a full-fledged party to talks."
