Azerbaijani top official: So-called "elections" in Nagorno-Karabakh serve to extend separatist regime's life

"This election serves to legalize the Armenians' illegal activity in the Nagorno-Karabakh. The elections there can not be considered as legitimate elections unless Azerbaijan and Armenia agreed on the status of the Nagorno-Karabakh, signed an agreement and the population returned to home," Hasanov said.

The separatist regime in Nagorno-Karabakh held the so-called "parliamentary elections" May 23. Many international organizations, including the European Union, stated that they will not recognize this election. Hasanov said, in any case, it is not possible to hold the election in the region, half of whose population was displaced, and live as refugees.
