Stepanakert: it's absurd to react to plans for "new" NKR capital construction

PanARMENIAN.Net - There can't be any kind of reaction to Baku's recent initiative to build a "new" capital of Nagorno Karabakh, said Janna Galstyan, chairperson of the NKR parliamentary committee on defense, armament and security.



"Maybe, the Azeri authorities have finally come to understand that people can't live in tents for 20 years in a country rich in oil and gas. Believe, the talk about construction of a new NKR capital is too absurd to comment on," she told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.



In an interview with Mirror newspaper, head of so-called Azeri community of Karabakh Nizami Bakhmanov said that "a new settlement is being built in Khojavend region of Azerbaijan for refugees from Khojavend, Khojaly and Shushi."



It's worth noting that Khojavend is a fictitious administrative unit in the southwest of Azerbaijan.
