Azerbaijani flag may be raised in Stepanakert only if NKR and
Azerbaijan establish diplomatic relations, says Shavarsh Kocharyan,
Deputy Foreign Minister of Armenia when commenting on the statement
of Azerbaijani president saying that "Azerbaijani flag will be raised
in Stepanakert soon."
As regards Aliyev's another statement saying that 'the territory of
today's Armenia is part of historical Azerbaijan,' Kocharyan said:
"It is not news that Aliyev perceives historical and geographic facts
inadequately. I have repeatedly said that to raise the Azerbaijani flag
in Stepanakert, Baku is to recognize the Nagorno Karabakh Republic and
establish diplomatic relations admitting the legitimate authorities
of NKR, hence realizing its dream," Kocharyan said. He said that
one can judge how efficient are the current negotiations by Aliyev's
destructive statements.
To recall, earlier today, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev said
speaking at the military parade in Baku that international legal norms,
political factors, economic and military power of Azerbaijan will
be crucial for settlement of the Karabakh conflict. "Azerbaijan will
restore its territorial integrity," he said adding that "Azerbaijani
flag will be raised in Stepabnakert, Shushi and other occupied
territories."
