YEREVAN, JULY 16, NOYAN TAPAN. The statements concerning the fact of
the forthcoming presidential elections to be held on July 19 in the
Republic of Nagorno Karabakh not being recognized by international
institutions are not extraordinary ones. This opinion was expressed
by Tigran Torosian, the Speaker of the RA National Assembly, at
the July 13 press conference. He classed them as "duty statements
made by international institutions before the elections being held
in a not recognized state." According to him, even if international
institutions do not recognize these elections as state institutions
forming ones, they will, no doubt, recognize them as elections of
representatives of the NKR people. Tigran Torosian also mentioned
that all this has nothing to do with the settlement process of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict.
