HOLDING REFERENDUM IN NKR DOES NOT CONTRADICT WITH INTERNATIONAL
PRINCIPLES

The NKR people will choose their way themselves, and it does not
contradict with the international law’s two principles – the
principle of territorial integrity and the nations’ right to
self-determination, RA FM Vardan Oskanian said at a press conference
in Yerevan.
In his words, the referendum’s principal outcome will not be its
recognition by the international community, but the expression of the
Nagorno-Karabakh people’s will. `’The international community may not
recognize the referendum’s outcomes, but it cannot ignore the
people’s will”, Oskanian underscored, PanARMENIAN.Net reports.
