"The process of negotiations makes it clear that the people of
Nagorno Karabakh are the masters of their destiny and there is no
alternative to their right to self-determination, Speaker of the
Armenian National Assembly Hovik Abrahamyan said on Friday during a
sitting of the Armenia-NKR interparliamentary committee.
"The Armenian side has always expressed readiness to solve the problem
through peaceful talks, but it does not mean that aggression will be
left unanswered. Armenia. Our country has proved that it is capable of
giving an adequate response to military attacks," Abrahamyan said
adding that Armenia will never disregard the opinion of the Artsakh
people.
"During its short existence, the Republic of Artsakh has proved that
it is more democratic than some countries of our region and has a
right to be recognized de jure," he added.
According to the Armenian parliament speaker, the Karabakh issue
continues to remain in the focus of meetings with international
diplomats.
"Armenian lawmakers have assumed another temporary function - they
refer to Karabakh conflict settlement during international meetings. I
am sure that sooner or later the Nagorno-Karabakh will become
independent of international law. I also believe that
inter-parliamentary cooperation will eventually contribute to NKR's
international recognition," said Abrahamyan.
