/PanARMENIAN.Net/ United States' recognition of NKR independence
will be an optimal step for preventing Azerbaijan to resume military
operation in Nagorno Karabakh conflict zone, Vahram Atanesyan, Head of
NKR NA Standing Committee on Foreign Relations, told a PanARMENIAN.Net
reporter. "To the best of my knowledge, U.S. Embassy in Baku has
already denied the statement allegedly made by Washington. But they
also deny statements which were really made. Anyway, I wouldn't like
NKR's recognition to be linked to possibility of resuming war," Head
of Parliamentary Committee said. According to him, if United States,
as co-Chair of OSCE MG finds Karabakh recognition necessary, it can
make the step without considering the factor.
"I don't think the statement will become a restraint jacket for Baku,
reducing ceasefire violations on NKR -Azerbaijan contact line. A
more interesting factor, enshrined in Azerbaijan's Constitution, is
that Baku 'rejects a war as a means of infringement on independence
of other states and way of settlement of international conflicts',"
Vahram Atanesyan said.
Commenting on Azerbaijan's bellicose statements, MP accounted for it
by unfavorable situation in the country's foreign policy.
"International community, particularly United States, should realize
that resumption of war will create rather solve problems. If mediators
have political will to move forward with Karabakh peace talks,
they should explain to Baku that Karabakh is an accomplished state
and political military factor in region. Without considering that
establishment of peace and stability in region will be out of the
question," Atanesyan stressed.
