    NAGORNO KARABAKH: ON ONE LEVEL WITH DEVELOPED COUNTRIES

    President of Nagorno Karabakh, Arkady Ghukasian, received yesterday a group
    of members of the World Armenian Congress and Union of Russia's Armenians
    visiting Artsakh within the frameworks of the Days of Russia's Armenians in
    Armenia and Artsakh. The head of the republic welcomed the guests
    emphasizing the importance of such meetings. Speaking of current
    socio-economic situation of Artsakh, Pres. Ghukasian mentioned of the poor
    conditions of Artsakh's settlements. "Seeing you in Karabakh today, we are
    sure that the country will revive, and we will overcome problems in all
    spheres. We have to win the economic war, too. I think that will be so",
    Ghukasian said. After having roamed in ins and outs of Stepanakert, deputy
    chairman of URA German Anyanyants and his friends expressed their happiness
    with what they saw. "It's hard to imagine that once there was a war here.
    Karabakh does fall behind any country with its development. We got in touch
    with teachers and pupils and saw happiness and faith for Karabakh's future
    in their eyes", he said.

    The members of the delegation were also interested in the conflict
    regulation process. Arkady Ghukasian said on this regard: "We do not say
    that Azerbaijan's army makes no headway but a nation's spirit is an
    important factor. We had a chance to make sure of that. No matter how much
    Azerbaijan fumes, Karabakh can never again be its appendage; that's an
    absurd that everybody understands".

    On behalf of the Union of Russia's Armenians and its chairman Ara
    Abrahamian, the delegation presented the schools of Stepanakert with
    computers.
