Czech Republic does not recognize so-called “elections” in Nagorno-Karabakh, the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.

On March 31, 2020, the so-called “presidential and parliamentary elections” took place in Nagorno-Karabakh, read the statement.

In this context, the Czech Foreign Ministry underlines that the Czech Republic does not recognize the constitutional and legal framework within which these so-called “elections” were being held, according to the statement.

The statement also expressed the full support by the Czech Republic to the activity of the OSCE Minsk Group and its co-chairs and calls on parties involved in the conflict for further peace processes, and supports the statement of UN Secretary-General of March 23, 2020, calling for an immediate global ceasefire in all corners of the world, reads the document.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
