STEPANAKERT. - It is ridiculous to speak about Karabakh's possible
becoming a part of Azerbaijan, head of Armenia's Public Council Vazgen
Manukyan said on Friday at the conference in Stepanakert.
He stressed that it was difficult to think of holding such a conference
back in 1988 when the Karabakh movement was launched.
"There were other objectives, as Karabakh was within Azerbaijan
and Azerbaijani administration was ruling it. Besides, Azerbaijan
attempted to characterize the issue as an ethnic problem, but failed.
"Twenty years have passed since then, and Nagorno-Karabakh is an
independent state, while discussions over other status are ridiculous,"
Manukyan stressed adding people of the state decide on their destiny
regardless of any documents.
Moreover, Nagorno-Karabakh should become a party to the negotiations.
Manukyan said here is a threat that Azerbaijan will decide to use
military means to seize Karabakh if it finds no legal way.
