Karabakh people cannot return to a country where it was being exposed to systematic genocide

PanARMENIAN.Net - The international community must recognize the right of Nagorno Karabakh people to self-determination, ARF Dashnaktsutyun representative and Chairman of the NA Standing Committee on Foreign Relations Armen Roustamyan stated during a press conference in Yerevan. He said, the matter is not about contradictions between principals of territorial integrity and the right of nations to self-determination. "The population of Nagorno Karabakh cannot return to a country, where it was being exposed to systematic genocide. Yes, Karabakh has never been a part of independent Azerbaijan. And we must bring this very fact to the international community," Roustamyan stressed. He also underlined that currently Armenia has a task to reach to international recognition of the NKR. "Armenia's actions in connection with NKR's and Armenian Genocide recognition by the international community must be similar. Only then we can reach success in solution of our problems," the ARF Dashnaktsutyun representative said.
