PRESS RELEASE
11-07-2007
Vladimir Karapetian, Acting Head of Ministry of Foreign Affairs Press and
Information Department, responds to a question by Radio Free Europe on GUAM.
Question: How would you comment on the GUAM announcement condemning the
elections in Karabakh?
Answer: Let me first say, that it would be better if these countries did not
comment on issues which don't concern them.
After having declared independence, the people of Nagorno Karabakh chose the
path of democracy and rule of law, and have achieved significant progress in
that direction in this period.
I regret that these countries make statements driven by their domestic
interests, forgetting that the authorities of Nagorno Karabakh have always
been selected through democratic means.
Democratic processes within Nagorno Karabakh, including the upcoming
presidential elections, benefit the formation and development of legal and
civic institutions, which are themselves important prerequisites, and also
necessary as factors in the peaceful settlement of the conflict.
