NKR security guarantees can't be less than existingJuly 28, 2009 - 19:29 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - "Authorities of Nagorno Karabakh have not received an official document on Madrid principles, and that is why Stepanakert has not made an official statement so far," Khosrov Haroutyunyan, leader of the Christian Democratic Union and a member of the RA President's Public Council, told a press conference in Yerevan today. According to Harutyunyan, Nagorno Karabakh has some concerns in respect to Madrid principles, and particularly, to security of NKR. "These concerns do not mean a waiver of the entire document, but rather aimed at continuing negotiations over NKR's security," he said. Khosrov Harutyunian believes that security guarantees to NKR to be included in the Madrid principles, can't be less than existing today. "Both authorities and public sector in Nagorno Karabakh believe that negotiations cannot result in the status of NKR which is less than the actual to date", he said. ![]() ![]() Azerbaijani authorities report that they have already resettled 3,000 people in the Nagorno-Karabakh town of Stepanakert.
