/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The U.S. puts difference between the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict and the South Ossetian problem. Non-recognition of
the referendum in Tskhinvali doesn’t foretell a similar decision on
referendum in NKR, ARF Bureau’s Hay Dat and Political Office Director
Kiro Manoian told a news conference in Yerevan today. He reminded
that unlike the other self-declared republics of the former
USSR Nagorno Karabakh receives annual assistance from the
U.S. government. "The problem of South Ossetia is the issue of the
Russian-Georgian relations and it would be incorrect to draw parallels
between these two conflicts," he said.
