Nagorno-Karabakh must become a full- fledged party to the negotiating
process on settling the conflict over this self-proclaimed territory,
Bako Saakian, the president of Nagorno- Karabakh, said in Shushi
on Saturday.
"The negotiations are now proceeding in a format in which Nagorno-
Karabakh is not taking part. Armenia, represented by its president,
is making efforts primarily aimed at restoring the Budapest summit
decision under which Nagorno-Karabakh is a full-fledged party to the
talks," local media quoted Saakian as telling journalists.
Everybody, including the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs, understand that,
"without Nagorno-Karabakh, it is impossible to achieve the final
solution, and Karabakh should become a party to the negotiations."
On May 9, Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh celebrate the victory in the
Soviet Union's war against Nazi Germany in 1941-1945, the liberation
of Shushi, and an anniversary of the foundation of the Nagorno-Karabakh
armed forces.
