/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The MFA of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic released
a statement on the referendum on independence in Montenegro. The
statement specifically says, “The holding of the referendum on
independence in Montenegro and readiness of the international community
to recognize the returns is a positive fact.

We are convinced that respect of peoples’ right to self-determination
is a cornerstone of conflict settlement and tool to establish political
stability.

Thereupon, it is expedient to remind that disrespect of NK
people’s right, who voted at referendum held on December 10, 1991
for independence, was a basis for further military aggression by
Azerbaijan.

Further neglect of NKR people’s right to self-determination during
settlement of the Azeri-Karabakh conflict, as well as right for
conditions that will ensure its political independence, economic and
military security, will postpone the prospect of finding a mutually
acceptable solution and establishment of lasting peace in the region.”
