Babayan: Artsakh's recognition by Basque parliament is important step
Saturday,September 13
The recognition of Artsakh's right to self-determination by the Basque
parliament is an extremely important step to us, David Babayan,
spokesman for the president of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic, told
Aysor.am. He described that step as a new beginning in Artsakh's
history and the establishment of new relations with Artsakh.
"In Europe, it was the first step recognizing Artsakh's right to
self-determination and the independence of the state of Artsakh. We do
work in various countries and continents and this work will produce
its results sooner or later," Babayan said.
We would remind you that recently California became the sixth U.S.
state to recognize Artsakh's independence.
"The geography is gradually expanding. These good and promising
developments will continue, making Artsakh recognizable in the world,
" Babayan said, noting that the process is conditioned by several
factors. In his words, it bears evidence of a community of interests
and the fact that Artsakh is a democratic state that has a right to
self-determination. "It is also a result of Armenia-Artsakh-Diaspora
trinity's work. It also shows that Artsakh does not pose a danger to
any other state. No country would recognize a fascist non-democratic
state. It is a demonstration of goodwill, "Babayan said adding that
unlike Azerbaijan, Artsakh does not spend millions of dollars to
improve its image.
"It is not like Azerbaijan or some other states that waste billions of
dollars. For example, Azerbaijan does it with the aim of harming
Artsakh's image," he said.
Commenting on the negotiating process, D. Babayan considered it a bit
complex process. "These recognitions are important, but they have
nothing to do with negotiations. Azerbaijan is the main obstacle to
negotiations. Nevertheless, I believe that it is impossible to achieve
the final result in negotiations without Artsakh. Artsakh will join
these talks sooner or later. And the sooner official Baku understands
it and stops its ostrich policy, the better for Azerbaijan," David
Babayan said.
