The international community should recognize Nagorno Karabakh as an
independent state, NKR President Bako Sahakyan said in an exclusive
interview with RIA Novosti.
"I think not only experts but simply people familiar with the Karabakh
problem can unanimously confirm that the Nagorno Karabakh Republic was
proclaimed on the basis of all international norms and principles,"
Baako Sahakyan said when asked whether there were legal grounds for
the republic to be recognized.
"Any document, any initiative that does not presuppose the
participation of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic is relative, and our
efforts are now aimed at ensuring that such documents and initiatives
are coordinated with us and, moreover, that without fail everything
takes place with our participation," Sahakyan said.
Asked on the possibility of a military resolution to the conflict,
Sahakyan said: "Remaining adherents to the peaceful conflict
resolution, we have always said that should Azerbaijan decide to
resolve the issue in this way [aggressively], it will receive the
appropriate rebuff."
