Kosovo Self-Determination Will Strengthen Armenia Positions in Karabakh Issue
"Armenia's stand is that each conflict has its peculiarities and these should be considered in the common context taking into account historical and legal factors, as well as political conditions," Armenian FM Vartan Oskanian stated in an interview with Armenian Shant TV Company. At that he remarked that possible self-determination of Kosovo will form a new precedent in settlement of ethnic conflicts. In his words, it will strengthen Armenia's positions in Nagorno Karabakh settlement and Karabakh people exercising right to self-determination.
