The recognition of the independence of South Sudan will not affect
the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Center for Political Innovation and
Technology Director Mubariz Ahmedoglu said. He commented on Armenian
President Serzh Sargsyan's statement.
"The international community recognized the independence of many
structures prior to Sudan. The sensational was the recognition of
Kosovo, and the recognition of Abkhazia was the most sensational in
the CIS. If the recognition of Kosovo and Abkhazia did not impact
the recognition of Nagorno-Karabakh, then the recognition of Sudan
will not affect it," Ahmedoglu added.
The independence of Nagorno Karabakh, as well as the independence of
Southern Sudan is indisputable, Sargsyan said at a meeting of with
the foreign ambassadors on Aug.29.
The political scientist said that the position of OSCE Minsk Group
on Nagorno-Karabakh is clear and unambiguous.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. -
are currently holding the peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
surrounding regions.
