Yerevan, 3 July: Nagornyy Karabakh has many more arguments to persuade
the international community of the inevitability of a process of
gaining independence, than Kosovo has. The president of Nagornyy
Karabakh, Arkadi Ghukasyan, said this while presenting a report
entitled "Nagornyy Karabakh: perspectives of settlement" in
Russian-Armenian (Slavic) State University.
"It is a very long and difficult path, but we do not have a choice
since an independent statehood status has never been the ultimate
target for us. The creation of Karabakh statehood was a forced measure
for it was the only way to protect our borders. We have announced a
state and have mobilized all resources of Nagornyy Karabakh with the
aim of protecting our borders. The state in this case became a
guarantee of Nagornyy Karabakh’s security," Ghukasyan said.
