Latvian Foreign Ministry does not recognize the "presidential
elections" held on 19 July 2007 in Nagorno Karabakh nor their outcome,
Azerbaijani embassy in Latvia told APA.
The Ministry reiterates its support to the activities of the OSCE Minsk
Group and its efforts towards a settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict. The Foreign Ministry considers that the conducting of the
"presidential elections", thus pre-empting the outcome of the ongoing
negotiations, did not contribute to peaceful conflict resolution.
