    Yerevan, 4 September: Armenia cannot recognize the independence
    of Abkhazia and South Ossetia without recognizing the independence
    of the Nagornyy Karabakh republic (NKR), Armenian President Serzh
    Sargsyan stated.

    The head of state said this on 3 September at an annual meeting of
    heads of Armenian diplomatic missions abroad.

    "The question whether Armenia will recognize the independence of South
    Ossetia or Abkhazia has been heard recently. As with Kosovo, it's
    obvious that given the Karabakh problem Armenia cannot recognize the
    independence of similar formations without recognizing the independence
    of Nagornyy Karabakh," the Armenian president stressed.

    At the same time, Serzh Sargsyan expressed his confidence that during
    the negotiation process the Armenian side can persuade Azerbaijan
    that there is no alternative to the recognition of the right of the
    people of Nagornyy Karabakh to self-determination.
