STATEMENT OF MINSK GROUP CO-CHAIRING COUNTRIES' LEADERS IS SIGNAL FOR AZERBAIJAN - KARABAKH MP
June 20, 2013 | 01:26
The statement by the leaders of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairing
countries can be viewed as a signal for Azerbaijan that there is
still a chance to discuss with Nagorno-Karabakh the existing problems.
If official Baku refuses, the process will probably result in the
recognition of the de facto independence of the Nagorno-Karabakh
Republic (NKR).
NKR MP Vahram Atanesyan told the abovementioned to Armenian
News-NEWS.am. He added that if this process continues, NKR will
receive the right to talk with Azerbaijan as equals.
In the text of the aforesaid statement, Atanesyan pointed to the
precept of the self-determination and equality of nations.
"In my view, a clearer definition is given in this text than the
previous ones," the MP stressed. He noted that, in this way, the
leaders of the Minsk Group co-chairing countries-i.e., the United
States, Russia, and France-have highlighted the people of Karabakh's
exercising of this right, despite Azerbaijan's claim of territorial
integrity.
Thus, as per Vahram Atanesyan, the people of Nagorno-Karabakh and
Azerbaijan are viewed as the bearers of a state, and this enables to
consider this a certain signal for Azerbaijan.
