Scotland's move to gain independence from the United Kingdom may
contribute to the process of Nagorno Karabakh's recognition, says an
Armenian expert.
Speaking to Tert.am, political analyst Sergey Shakaryants said Nagorno
Karabakh does not have to declare independence as the country has been
living independently for 20 years. He said the independence vote in
Scotland and unrecognized states creates only a positive atmosphere
in the Karabakh recognition process.
This comes after Scottish nationalists, who always acted in favor
of the country's independence from the United Kingdom, celebrated a
historic victory in a recent local election.
"The process will help develop a more positive attitude to Karabakh.
That will produce a positive outcome we have been waiting for since
the signing of the ceasefire," Shakaryants said.
As for the independence of Scotland, he said the process is complicated
enough to find a speedy solution.
