Do meetings with NKR representatives make sense if international community doesn't recognize elections in Karabakh?
There is nothing new in official statements of international structures as regards the forthcoming presidential election in the NKR, Armenian National Assembly Speaker Tigran Torosian said in IA Regnum's press office. NKR is treated the same way as the other self-proclaimed republics, according to him.
"Nagorno Karabakh is not an exception. The outcomes of elections in Transdnistria, Abkhazia and South Ossetia are not recognized by the international community, but it doesn't mean that talks are not held with them. Moreover, I think that such an assessment doesn't tell on the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement process," Mr Torosian said.
"Talks should be held with representatives of the given self-proclaimed republic. People's representatives are elected on the basis of democracy. So, do meetings with NKR representatives make sense if the international community doesn't recognize elections in Karabakh?" Tigran Torosian said.
