"I’m absolutely confident that today the international community is
not interested in the resumption of war between Nagorno Karabakh and
Azerbaijan," NKR President Arkady Ghukasyan declared, ArmInfo reports.

Meantime, the President noted that he sees no political, economic,
moral or geographical reasons for the resumption of the war. In
his words, the most important today is that "we have reached
our objective: we have won the imposed war and have constructed
a developing state. The symbol of the past 15 years has been the
free and independent life of the Nagorno Karabakh people. NKR leader
noted that declaration of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic was the only
salvation for Artsakhi people.

"Life has proved that we are correct. Otherwise, we would face the fate
of Nakhijevan," Arkady Ghukasyan mentioned. In the President’s words,
the two major aims of the republic are the maintenance of peace and
signing a treaty with Azerbaijan in this framework, as well as the
international recognition of NKR. I think we are able to resolve
these two problems," Arkady Ghukasyan pointed out.
