"Recent developments in the Karabakh conflict resolution process
demonstrate Azerbaijan’s obvious non-constructive approach," NKR
National Assembly said in a statement.
"By using various propaganda methods, the Azeri leadership is creating
the illusion of dissatisfaction with the internationally mediated
process. In reality, however, the policies of that country aim to
shift the military and political balance in the region in its favor
by unveiled threats of future war against Artsakh."
Under these circumstance the Artsakh parliament, characterizes recent
public statements by high-ranking officials as an uncompromising
posturing for a party to the negotiations. This is rife with
possibilities for the Karabakh side to lose confidence in the peaceful
resolution of the conflict.
The authorities of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, on numerous
occasions, have warned international organizations and stakeholders
in the conflict resolution process of Azerbaijan’s military-leaning
foreign policy, which completely contradicts the responsibilities, to
which that country has agreed while becoming a members of international
organizations.
All of this points to official Baku’s intentions to derail the
negotiations and undermine the stability of the region, through
continued propaganda about alleged tensions in the Karabakh-Azerbaijan
borders.
The bold steps by Azerbaijan call into question the success of efforts
by the international community to establish peace and stability in
South Caucasus.
Taking note of the will of the people of Artsakh, the National Assembly
pledges it will take it upon itself to initiate efforts in light of
these developments and calls on the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Foreign
Ministry to inform the OSCE Ministerial Council of this announcement
when it convenes in Athens next week.
