Oskanian: "Karabakh Is Part of Armenia, Our Land, Where Our Ancestors Lived for Centuries"

PanARMENIAN.Net - "Nagorno Karabakh is an inseparable part of Armenia and will never pass under the jurisdiction of Azerbaijan," Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian stated during the TV marathon for collection of funds for the reconstruction of Karabakh. He stated that "Nagorno Karabakh will never be a part of Azerbaijan, since the people of Karabakh and Armenians in the whole world will never let it happen." In the early 1990-ies the people of Karabakh fought for their land with almost barehanded. Karabakh is a part of Armenia, our land, where our ancestors had lived for centuries. Karabakh became a part of Azerbaijan during the soviet period only," the Armenian Minister said. In his words, Karabakh has always been more independent than Armenia. Even during the period when Armenia was under the yoke of invaders Karabakh maintained independence. The stronger are the ties with Nagorno Karabakh and its unity with the Armenians throughout the globe the harder it will be to make it a part of Azerbaijan," Vartan Oskanian resumed, IA Regnum reported.
