Advisor to the NKR Foreign Minister Ruben Zargaryan said that
the situation in Azerbaijan and Sudan differs by the fact that
the government of Sudan, in contrast to Baku's administration,
has conceived the fatality of its aggressive policy, displayed
responsibility and has not hampered gaining of independence by
South Sudan.
Zargaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter that Sudanese President
Omar al-Bashir stated in 1998 that "the destiny of South Sudan will
be decided during a referendum," stressing that "the government will
accept the referendum results even if they lead to South Sudan's
secession."
On January 9, 2005, an agreement was signed between Sudan and South
Sudan in Nairobi (Kenya), which envisaged holding a referendum on
independence in South Sudan in 2011.
"In contrast to Sudan, the Azerbaijani government's main wish is to
conceal the truth about the genocide perpetrated against Armenians of
Nagorno Karabakh and falsify history. However, the facts of systematic
genocide are so evident that they would be enough even if there were
no legal grounds for declaration of NKR's independence. Propagandists
of Baku say that South Sudan cannot serve as a precedent for NKR,
since in contrast to Sudan, Baku's administration has not given
its consent for holding a referendum in NKR. It pretends to be
unaware of the international law norms, which do not require such
permission, but, to the contrary, imperatively demand recognition of
the self-determining state - Nagorno Karabakh," concluded Zargaryan.
