Armenia disagrees with GUAM condemns pres poll in Karabakh
Armenia’s Foreign Ministry has disagreed with a statement by GUAM
that condemns the upcoming presidential elections in the
non-recognised republic of Nagorno-Karabakh scheduled for July 19.
Armenian Foreign Ministry acting spokesman Vladimir Karapetyan said
on Wednesday, “Democratisation in the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic,
including the upcoming presidential elections, will make contribution
to developing legal and civilian institutions that is an important
prerequisite and a necessary factor of peaceful settlement.”
GUAM involves Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine.
