agreements on Basic Principles, steps on trust building, ceasefire
regime, and establishment of mechanism on investigating the incidents
on the line of the contact, through its hostile and militaristic
statements, destructive steps and rude provocations on the line of
the contact with Artsakh and Armenia, by becoming a reason for human

the release and glorification of Azeri killer Ramil Safarov, who axed
an Armenian officer during NATO Partnership for Peace event in Hungary.
In 2012, the U.S. Rhode Island and Massachusetts, as well as
Australia's New South Wales states recognized Arstakh's independence.
