November 8, 2014 - 14:16 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - The Board of Spokespersons of the Parliament of
Navarre (autonomous community in northern Spain) has issued a
statement calling on the international community and specifically the
OSCE Minsk Group and the European Union to take steps for resolving
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict through peaceful and democratic means.
The Board of Spokespersons is an administrative body which assists the
Committee of the House and in which the Parliamentary Groups are
represented by their Spokesperson. It participates in the formation of
political resolutions considered deserving of parliamentary work and
affairs. The decisions taken by the Board of Spokespersons are adopted
by means of a system of measured vote by which each Spokesperson has
as many votes as his/her group has parliamentarians. This body is
responsible, among other things, for approving the budgets and
accounts of the House and for formulating institutional statements.
According to NKR Foreign Ministry's report, the statement emphasizes
the authorities of Nagorno Karabakh should participate in the
negotiation process of any format. The council also hailed Artsakh
people's adherence to democratic principles.
On Sept 12, a motion supporting the self-determination of Nagorno
Karabakh (Artsakh) Republic was adopted by the Basque Parliament. The
motion praises the strong determination of the Nagorno Karabakh people
in their choice for democracy, despite the hard and difficult
situation. In addition, it states that the people of Karabakh have the
right to decide their own future, namely their self-determination,
which is the fundamental element in any negotiation for the final
settlement of the conflict. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance
of Nagorno Karabakh's participation in the OSCE Minsk Group conflict
resolution negotiations.
A day earlier, a similar document was adopted by the province of
Gipuzkoa, one of the three provinces of the Basque Country.
On Jan 28, 2014, the Los Angeles City Council unanimously adopted a
resolution recognizing the independence of Nagorno Karabakh Republic.
The motion was introduced by Councilmember Paul Krekorian.

to officially recognize the independence of the Nagorno Karabakh
Republic (Artsakh). The Board of Supervisors passed a resolution
sponsored by Supervisor Andreas Borgeas that officially recognizes the
Nagorno Karabakh Republic and also calls upon the California
Legislature to grant official recognition.
On May 30, 2013, the Louisiana State Senate adopted a resolution
saluting the Nagorno Karabakh Republic's independence and urging the
U.S. president and Congress "to support the self-determination and
democratic independence" of this developing democratic state.
On Aug 6, 2012, the House of Representatives of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts adopted a resolution urging President Barack Obama and
the United States legislature to "support the self-determination and

On Oct 24, 2012, the Legislative Council of Australia's New South
Wales Parliament adopted, a resolution recognizing the Republic of
Nagorno Karabakh and the right to self-determination of its Armenian
people. The motion acknowledges the 20th anniversary of independence
for the Republic of Nagorno Karabakh, it supports the right to
self-determination of its people, and it "calls on the Commonwealth
Government [of Australia] to officially recognize the independence of
the Republic of Nagorno Karabakh and strengthen Australia's
relationship with the Nagorno Karabakh and its citizens".
