Kocharian did not Rule out Armenia Officially Recognizing NKR

PanARMENIAN.Net - «I do not rule out Yerevan recognizing the Nagorno Karabakh Republic (NKR) or joining the NKR to Armenia in case the talks are exhausted without any outcomes,» stated Armenian President Robert Kocharian. In his words, the de facto recognition of the NKR by Armenia has taken place long ago. R. Kocharian reminded that the NKR uses Armenian currency - dram, and there is a common customs zone, etc. «At the moment a serious integration process is under way, the relations between Armenia and the NKR can be considered as a disproportionate confederation,» the Armenian leader stated in an interview with the Delo Slovenian newspaper, reported Mediamax.
