PanARMENIAN.Net - On May 25, French Ministry of Foreign Affairs and EU issued a joint statement on May 23 NKR parliamentary elections.

According to the statement, international community, including Armenia, does not recognize NKR independence. “All interested parties are currently negotiating peaceful settlement of Karabakh conflict under the aegis of OSCE MG French, U.S. and Russian Co-Chairs.
