Friendship Group, stated the aforesaid, on Wednesday in the
Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) capital city Stepanakert, during a

Australian states also petition with a resolution to the country's
central authorities, calling upon them to recognize the right to
self-determination of the people of NKR.
Underscoring the peoples' right to freedom and independence, Ghulyan
