International Recognition of NKR Task Number One for Armenians of the WorldSeptember 18, 2006 - 14:25 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - «The Artsakh was and the talks it was followed with are an inseparable part of the 15 years of Armenia's independence,» Armenian President Robert Kocharian stated at the opening of Armenia-Diaspora third forum. He remarked numerous nuances of the negotiation process. "Several times we were close to concluding a treaty, which would strengthen NK people's right to free life. Unfortunately, we did not succeed," Kocharian noted. In his words, he does not see any need to respond to militant statements, made by Azerbaijan, as in case of a war the victory is gained owing to the spirit of the people and an efficient army, but not owing to statements. "Our position is as follows: the existence of the NKR is an indisputable fact. Legal grounds of its forming are invulnerable. Its economy has sustainable growth, democratic reforms are held. Thus, the NK people has in fact implemented and defended its right to self-determination and is effectively building the state at present. No one is going to give up the achievements in NK. International recognition of the NKR should be a task number one for Armenians of the world,» Kocharian said.
