    MOSCOW July 20


    Russia sees no direct connection between the recent presidential
    election in the self-proclaimed republic of Nagorno-Karabakh and the
    process of a peaceful settlement of the conflict, Russian Foreign
    Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said on Friday.

    "Moscow does not believe that the results of a peace process in
    Nagorno-Karabakh could depend on the holding of elections there," he
    stressed. The diplomat noted that the official position of three
    co-chairmen of the OSCE Minsk Group (the United States, France and
    Russia) on the Thursday election in Nagorno-Karabakh will be posted on
    the official website of the OSCE on Friday.

    Lukashevich marked that "like all other countries" Moscow does not

    Nagorno-Karabakh as an independent state,
