STRASBOURG. - Thirty-two PACE delegates adopted a joint declaration on
Nagorno-Karabakh recognizing the independence of the Nagorno-Karabakh
Republic and calling to close cooperation with legally elected
authorities of the Republic. Armenian News-NEWS.am posts the full text:
"20 years ago, through the adoption of legal decisions on independence
based on Soviet and International Laws, new states were created in
our region. The right to self-determination and decolonization from
the Soviet Union was exercised not only by Armenia, Azerbaijan and
Georgia, but by Mountainous Karabagh as well.
These four political entities declared independence approximately at
the same time. Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia have been members of the
Council of Europe for 10 years now, while Artsakh is not a member of
this organization. Despite these facts and the difficult situation it
finds itself in, Artsakh has nonetheless adopted and is consistently
following a political path of state-building in conformity with the
spirit, the mission and the values of the Council of Europe.
Highly appreciating the results and the dynamics of democracy-building
adopted as a development model by Artsakh and realizing the importance
of the participation of the official delegates of Artsakh to the
negotiations taking place within the context of the OSCE Minsk Group,
we congratulate the Republic of Mountainous Karabagh on its 20th
anniversary and call for close cooperation with its duly-elected
authorities.
