"Karabakh coordinator of "Helsinki Initiative -92": "Moscow declaration is the most disgraceful document through the whole history of the Karabakh conflict settlement"

"The Moscow declaration is the most disgraceful document on Nagorno Karabakh through the whole modern history and through the whole process of the Karabakh conflict resolution", considers Karen Ohadjanyan, coordinator of the "Nagorno Karabakh committee" "Helsinki Initiative-92".

He noted that "of all existing documents, undersigned by the conflict parties, this is the only one which lacks a signature of the Karabakh representative".

He considers that this document completely rules out possible participation of the Karabakh side in the discussion of the basis of the future agreement on the resolution of the Karabakh conflict and replaces the format of the negotiation process in the OSCE Minsk Group framework.

"The forced change of configuration in the South Caucasus by Russia's fault makes its participation in the negotiation process as an unbiased mediator impossible. And in this connection, the Karabakh society must realize the danger of the Moscow intrigue for the future security of the Karabakh people and resist to Russia's intention to play a Karabakh card in its favor", noted Ohadjanyan.

He said "the Armenian leadership must define its priciples and priorities in the resolution of the Karabakh conflict and rule out any illusions that someone in Nagorno Karabakh will allow somebody to change the strategic component of the structures of the security system of the Karabakh people and the whole region".

"The Karabakh leadership must make a statement, giving a political assessment to the signed declaration and fixing that the interests of Nagorno Karabakh on the international arena and in the negotiation process can be represented only by the elected powers of Nagorno Karabakh.

Not a single document, signed without participation of a representative of the elected authorities of "Nagorno Karabakh Republic" will be treated seriously in Nagorno Karabakh", added Ohadjanyan.
