    Karabakh hails Montenegrin independence vote

    Yerevan, May 25: The foreign ministry of the Nagornyy Karabakh
    republic today issued a statement about the referendum on independence
    in Montenegro. The statement says the following:

    "It is a positive event that a referendum on independence was held in
    Montenegro and the international community showed its readiness to
    recognize its results. We are sure that the respect for a nation's
    right to self-determination exercised through a nation-wide referendum
    is a cornerstone of the settlement of similar situations and is a tool
    for establishing political stability in a conflict region.

    "In this connection, it is expedient to recall that the disrespect for
    the right of the people of Nagornyy Karabakh, who voted for
    independence at a referendum on 10 December 1991, in fact resulted in
    Azerbaijan's military aggression against the Nagornyy Karabakh
    republic which led to human casualties and destruction.

    "In the process of settlement of the Nagornyy Karabakh conflict, the
    disregard of the right of the people of Nagornyy Karabakh to
    self-determination and to political independence and economic and
    military security, will reduce the possibility of finding a mutually
    acceptable solution and establishing lasting peace and mutual
    understanding in the region."
