Russian Observers Are Satisfied With Karabakh Election

RUSSIAN OBSERVERS ARE SATISFIED WITH KARABAKH ELECTION

Lragir, Armenia
July 20 2007

The Russian observers are satisfied with the Karabakh election, the
director of the institute of the CIS countries Constantine Zatulin
stated on behalf of the Russian delegation.

The Russian delegation includes members of the Russian Duma, members
of the public chamber of Russia, experts, political scientists.

According to Zatulin, many describe Karabakh as unrecognized,
self-proclaimed. "As if there are states which did not proclaim
themselves." "Perhaps this fact makes the people of Karabakh especially
scrupulous regarding elections not to arouse internal shocks and
criticism from the outside," Constantine Zatulin said.

He reminded that now the international community is concerned about the
issue of the independence of Kosovo. "You know the official stance of
Russia on this issue. However, it is possible that the independence
of Kosovo will be recognized. And it seems that NKR where peaceful
life is normalizing stands a chance to attract everyone’s attention
to Karabakh," Zatulin said.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
