PanARMENIAN.Net – Italian weekly Il Dimocratico has published an
article on Nagorno Karabakh.

The author, Armando Pascale, refers to recognition of Kosovo that
was backed up by a national referendum and stresses the necessity of
recognition of Karabakh by the international community.

Nagorno Karabakh had been populated by Armenians from the ancient
times and is, consequently, an inseparable part of Armenia, the
article says. It also notes that Baku pursued a policy of forced
‘Azerbaijanification’ of Armenian lands.

The author emphasizes that although being unrecognized, Nagorno
Karabakh possesses all attributes of an independent state and its
rejoining to Azerbaijan would be a violation of the international
law norms on sovereignty.
