YEREVAN, JULY 23, NOYAN TAPAN. The official number of voters
in Karabakh does not correspond to reality, it is artificially
exaggerated. Aram Manukian, a member of the Board of the Armenian
National Movement party, stated at the July 23 dispute with Gagik
Minasian, a member of RPA. In particular, in A. Manukian's words,
as a result of the non-competent policy of the current authorities,
the number of Kashatagh region's population has decreased twofold,
which has not been expressed in the electoral rolls.
And the problem of Artsakh resettlement, as A. Manukian mentioned,
indeed is a strategic issue. Consequently, in his words, we can even
tolerate a KGBist President, only because country's resettlement
is paid a special attention in his preelection program. In this
circumstance, in A. Manukian's words, we can sacrifice democracy for
the sake of Karabakh's security.
G. Minasian, in his turn, stated that democracy is also one of
the cornerstones of security, and we cannot achieve any positive
result without following democratic values. He denied A. Manukian's
observation that the number of voters in NKR is less than the
official sources present it. G. Minasian said that the process of
Artsakh resettlement that started in the 1990-s is actively going on
at present.
