    PRESS RELEASE

    31-05-2006

    Acting Press Secretary Vladimir Karapetian Replies to
    Question by Arminfo News Agency


    QUESTION: As a result of the referendum held in Montenegro on May 21, that
    Balkan state has effectively become independent. It is notable that the
    result of the referendum has been universally recognized which gives
    additional legitimacy to Montenegro's independence. What's the reaction of
    the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Armenia to the creation
    of a new state in Europe?

    MR. KARAPETIAN: We welcome the decision of the authorities and people of
    Montenegro to create an independent state. We congratulate and wish the
    Montenegrin people the best of luck in the process of state building.

    In such a peaceful dissolution, Armenia attaches importance to the fact that
    the Montenegrin people's right of self-determination was expressed through a
    referendum, which proves that in international relations, a referendum
    remains a universally recognized and civilized means of resolving such
    problems and of expressing a people's right.
