Nagorno-Karabakh's status should be determined through talks - Russian
Foreign Ministry
NEW YORK. Sept 23
Nagorno-Karabakh's status can be determined only through negotiations,
the Russian Foreign Ministry said.
"It is our conviction that its future status should be determined
through political negotiations between the conflicting parties within
the framework of the Minsk Process based on the principles of non-use
of force, territorial integrity, and the right to self-determination,"
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said when
asked to clarify Russia's position on the recent elections in
Nagorno-Karabakh.
"The Russian Foreign Ministry believes that the local elections in
Nagorno-Karabakh were aimed at creating normal conditions for the
people's lives. At the same time, Russia, as well as other countries,
does not recognize Nagorno-Karabakh as an independent state," he said.
