June 26, 2013 – 15:27 AMT

PanARMENIAN.Net – Regardless of Azeri wishes and expectations, the
independence of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic is a fact, with no
other alternatives possible, the deputy parliament speaker said.

Commenting on recent statement of President Ilham Aliyev who voiced
intention to “restore the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan,”
Eduard Sharmazanov noted, “the sooner Baku reconciles itself to
Artsakh’s independence, the easier it will find to accept the reality.”

In reply to Aliev’s claims that the territory of modern Armenia is a
part of historic Azerbaijan, the official referred the Azeri leader
to works of Strabo, Plutarch and Ptolemy to avoid blunders in history
knowledge in future.
