International community’s inaction in Karabakh conflict settlement can lead to escalated tension, NKR President stated.

“Azerbaijani authorities are pursuing the policy of terrorism, threatening not only Karabakh and Karabakh people but Armenian people as well,” Bako Sahakyan stated.

The President urged the international community to induce Azerbaijan into respecting international norms and altering its current policy.

President Sahakyan also stressed Artsakh’s support for Russia’s involvement in conflict settlement. “NKR is interested in Russia’s participation, considering the country’s historic presence in the region,” Ekho Moskvy cited the President as saying.
