/PanARMENIAN.Net/ To avoid false rumors about "surrender" of Karabakh,
Armenia and NKR should admeasure roles and authority in resolution
of the conflict with Azerbaijan, an expert said.

"The issues referring to the liberated territories should be in
competence of the NKR authorities. Legally, all Karabakh territories,
including the liberated ones, are under jurisdiction of NKR. The
fact that these territories are controlled by Karabakh Armenians is
fixed in UN resolutions adopted in 1993. As to the role of Armenia,
these documents "call to observe the provisions of the UN Security
Council resolutions." Furthermore, it would be advisable to seal an
agreement on military cooperation between the two Armenian states,
what would be a solution to a number of problems," former Deputy
Foreign Minister of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic, independent expert
Masis Mayilyan said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net.

"Presently, the NKR Defense Army guards not only NKR borders but
also Armenia’s eastern frontiers, from the Mrav mountain ridge in
the north to the Armenian-Iranian border in the south. The status
of Republic of Armenia as a guarantor of Artsakh’s independence and
security should be fixed in international documents," he said.
