The Nagorno Karabakh Republic welcomes the fact of recognition of
independence of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. It completely corresponds
to main principles of international law and self-determination of
nations, which are recorded in basic documents of the UNO, OSCE and
other international organizations.
We had repeatedly notified that attempts to use force, unlimited
increase of military potential and solution of problems to one’s
own advantage by means of weapon fraught with serious humanitarian
calamities.
We are confident that all sides interested in peace in this region
will draw appropriate conclusions from the events occurred in South
Caucasia recently and will undertake decisive attempts to settle
existing issues in exclusively peaceful way and to reestablish the
stability in the region,-such statement was extended by the NKR MFA.
