KARABAKH ALONE CANNOT RESETTLE LACHIN

Lragir, Armenia
Nov 14 2006

Nobody knows the exact number of people living in Lachin, says
Arman Melikyan, adviser to the NKR president, former NKR minister of
foreign affairs. He thinks that the reason for this uncertainty is
the constant migration to Armenia and back. Arman Melikyan says this
is very bad because there must be a permanent population in Lachin,
but Karabakh is unable to resolve this problem alone, says the adviser
to the NKR president.

"We must realize that Karabakh alone cannot provide conditions for
the fast resettlement and prosperity of this territory. This is the
problem of both Armenia and the Diaspora, and also the problem of our
potential allies, who must be interested in having the Armenians live
there," says Arman Melikyan.
