The State Department, in its recently released annual report on human
rights, undermined prospects for a negotiated settlement of the very
status and security issues it is helping to mediate regarding Nagorno
Karabakh, by again seeking to pre-judge the final status of Nagorno
Karabakh in accord with Baku's undemocratic demands, reported the
Armenian National Committee of America.
The annual report, in language reflected in both its sections on
Armenia and Azerbaijan, asserts that: `Ethnic Armenian separatists,
with Armenia's support, continued to control most of the
Nagorno-Karabakh region of the country and seven surrounding
Azerbaijani territories.'
`With a short sentence, remarkably long on errors of both fact and
bias, the State Department risks rolling back the cause of democracy
and self-determination a half a century or more,' said Aram Hamparian,
Executive Director of the ANCA. `By this standard, few if any of the
more than 80 states that have joined the U.N. over the past fifty
years would have been allowed entry into the community of free
nations.'
