elections will not be acknowledged by the international community.
The Press Secretary said that the forthcoming "elections" would have
no force either politically or from any other point of view. "Any
so-called "elections" or other similar elections, connected with
polling the opinion of the remaining population of the occupied
territories of Azerbaijan, have been acknowledged by neither any
of the countries nor the entire international community, including
different international organizations."
"Here we may refer to the OCSE Minsk Group Chairs on the resolution

to the "Presidency" is to begin 90 days prior to the "elections"
themselves. Arkady Gukasian, the Acting Head of the "Republic", who
has held this post since 1997, previously stated that despite the
possibility and right to nominate his candidacy for the "presidency"
for the third term, which was confirmed by the recently-approved
"Constitution", he will not take part in the "election campaign"
this time.
