DOUBLE DEALING OF RUSSIA IN KARABAKH
Experts' club
May 25 2010
Georgia
A statement by spokesman of the Russian Foreign Ministry Andrei
Nesterenko that Moscow recognizes the principle of territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan and does not recognize independence of
Nagorno-Karabakh, looks strange. As, at the same time, Moscow sees
"elections" that were held in Karabakh on March 23rd and which was
also attended by Russian observers, as a further step towards peaceful
settlement of the conflict.
As stressed by the Foreign Ministry and the CEC of Azerbaijan,
"parliamentary elections" in Nagorno-Karabakh are illegal. EU High
Representative for the Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Catherine
Ashton explained that "elections" in Nagorno-Karabakh are beyond
constitutional and legal framework. The Parliamentary Assembly of
the Council of Europe refused to send their observers to the elections.
