Baku, 16 June: The Karabakh Liberation Organization (KLO) has adopted
a statement over "parliamentary elections" in the so-called Nagornyy
Karabakh republic, MPA reports.
The statement says that Nagornyy Karabakh is an inseparable part of
Azerbaijan and elections held there cannot have a legal effect. The
KLO also expressed its concern with the inaction of the Azerbaijani
authorities and international organizations.
Under the current circumstances, it is just not enough to send
observers to the region and to issue declarations on non-recognition
of these "elections", the statement said.
By confining themselves to these measures, international organizations
and the Azerbaijani authorities actually promote the strengthening
of the occupiers' positions on the occupied territories. The KLO
believes that the Azerbaijani leadership should alert international
organizations to the issue and reconsider relations with the states
which will send their representatives to the "elections".
"The Azerbaijani authorities should either start the war themselves
or not prevent the people from waging it," the KLO statement says.
