/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The NKR parties reaffirm the independence of
Artsakh, expressed in the referendum of 1991 and during adoption of
Constitution in 2006. Exclusion of Nagorno Karabakh from negotiations,
ignoring the actual statehood of NKR and expression of a discriminatory
approach in the settlement of the problem failed the efforts to
resolve Azeri-Karabakh conflict".
Several Karabakh political parties issued a joint statement today in
Stepanakert protesting what it called the "discriminatory approach"
adopted by the current negotiations process and the fact that the
NKR was being left out of the talks regarding a settlement to the
conflict. It asserted that such attempts to disregard the will of
the Karabakh people were doomed to failure.
In its statement the signatories declared that:
The right of the people of the NKR to self-determination must be
respected via the full participation of the NKR government in the
on-going peace process.
The security of the people of the NKR must not be threatened and that
the essential guarantor of its security is the independent statehood
of the NKR and its territorial integrity as established in the NKR
constitution.
The statement goes on to say that the non-implementation of these
demands might very well threaten the territorial balance peacefully
preserved to date and that such a violation could lead to undesirable
consequences whose full responsibility will lie with the international
community, specifically with the governments of the OSCE Minsk Group
Co-chairs.
The signatories expressed their full support of the NKR government
and call on the people of Karabakh to show resoluteness, unity and
a sense of heightened alertness
The statement was signed by the "Azat Hayrenik" Party, "Zhoghovrtakan"
Party of Artsakh, "Armmenakan" Party of Artsakh, NKR Communist Party,
ARF Artsakh Central Committee, "Sharzhum 88â~@³ Party, "Our Home is
Armenia" Party
