ARMENIAN FM: VIOLATION OF PEOPLE'S RIGHT FOR SELF-DETERMINATION IN
KARABAKH ISSUE
YEREVAN, March 15. /ARKA/. Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanian
thinks that in the Karabakh issue there is the violation of people's
right for self-determination.
The Foreign Ministry's press office reported that Oskanian said this
during the fourth session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva.
"In the waning days of the USSR, the people of Nagorno-Karabakh opted
for self-determination. The Azerbaijani authorities decided to attack
their own citizens to suppress those calls. And by doing so, they
lost the political and moral right to govern people they considered
their own citizens," Oskanian said. L.M. -0--
