/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Proclamation of Kosovo’s
independence will inevitably echo in breakaway regions
in Georgia, Nagorno Karabakh and Transnistria.
Parallels are obvious, according to Anatol Lieven, a
senior research fellow at the New America Foundation.
`To resolve these issues West doesn’t have to
recognize independence of Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
It should just resort to a method, leading powers,
although unsuccessfully, try to apply in Nagorno
Karabakh, that is `creation of a common state’, where
Azerbaijan will maintain juridical sovereign
possession of the territory simultaneously recognizing
de facto independence, including full control of the
province’s authorities over the military and borders,’
Lieven writes in the Financial Times.
