Tens of Armenian public organizations and parties appealed to the
Armenian powers regarding the conflict between Georgia and South
Ossetia.
"The armed aggression, Georgia demonstrated in South Ossetia, proves
that the praised quo-status has no real grounds in our region.
Experience shows that the talks, aimed at the resolution of frozen
conflicts in the South Caucasus, gradually lead to resumption of
hostilities. Moreover, both Georgia and Azerbaijan, protracting
the negotiation process, use peaceful time for armament and armed
resolution of the conflicts.
It is clear that the negotiation process can not lead to the peaceful
resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Today, the only guarantee
of the statehood of the self-declared "Nagorno Karabakh Republic" and
security of its population can be its influence and the national army.
Therefore, considering the bitter experience of Ossetia, as well as
Azerbaijan’s bellicose statements and active armament of its army,
we demand from the Armenian powers to recognize the independence of
the self-declared "Nagorno Karabakh Republic", conclude military,
political and economic intergovernmental agreements with it and start
active process for the international recognition of the self-declared
"Nagorno Karabakh Republic".
