Hague court ruling on Kosovo independence proved the priority of
people's right to self-determination over territorial integrity
principle, according to Free Motherland parliamentary group leader
Artur Tovmasyan.
As he pointed out, an agreement between NKR and RA parliament
envisaged RA National Assembly's recognition of NKR independence at an
opportune time. `I believe, time has come to recognize NKR
independence. Other states' recognition of Artsakh independence will
not hamper negotiation process,' he stated, adding that world court
ruling can serve as a basis for Armenia to launch the process of
international recognition of NKR independence.
ARFD NKR parliamentary group member Armen Sargsyan, in turn, noted
that Hague court ruling can make a positive impact on international
recognition of NKR.
On 22 July, the International Court of Justice issued an advisory
opinion on Kosovo's declaration of independence. The ICJ ruled that a
declaration of independence does not violate any UN resolution or
international law.
