NKR MFA Thanks Azeri MediaDecember 13, 2006 - 17:53 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The NKR Foreign Ministry's press office thanked the Azeri media for timely notification of the scheduled for December 13 rally of the Azeri community in front of the Armenian Embassy in Moscow. "According to your information the goal of the picket is to protest the illegal referendum on independence," the NKR MFA press office said."We are surprised that the picket in Moscow was held in front of the Armenian Embassy and want to remind that NKR is not a part of Armenia but a sovereign state. We welcome any public events which prove recognition of NKR. We are also surprised that a picket against 'illegal referendum on independence' is held 15 years later. The people of Artsakh proclaimed independence December 10, 1991. In this view we offer the demonstrators to protest the constitutional referendum that was held December 10, 2006 not to waste money spent on the organization of the rally," the statement says, reports the NKR MFA press office.
