OSCE MG speaks of the "elections" in Nagorno-Karabakh

The Co-Chairs consider that the so-called parliamentary elections should not preempt the determination of the final legal status of Nagorno-Karabakh in the broader framework of the peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairmen's statement said.

The Co-Chairs understand the need for the de facto authorities in Nagorno-Karabakh to try to organize democratically the public life of their population with such a procedure. They underscore again that Nagorno-Karabakh is not recognized as an independent and sovereign state by any of their three countries, nor by any other country, including Armenia.

Separatist regime held unlawful "parliamentary elections" in Nagorno-Karabakh on May 23. Many international organizations, including the Council of Europe, said about the non-recognition of these elections.
