The Armenian National Assembly factions demand the RA authorities not to question the right to self-determination of the people of Artsakh

The factions of the National Assembly of the Republic of Artsakh, expressing the will and position of the people, demand from the authorities of the Republic of Armenia to adhere to the 1992 resolution of the Supreme Council of the Republic of Armenia. to the decision of July 8 and not to question the right to self-determination of the people of Artsakh. The NA factions of the Republic of Artsakh made a statement about this. In particular, it is stated in the statement: "In a few days, 100 days of Azerbaijan's blockade of the 120,000 population of the Artsakh Republic will pass. Disregarding the decision of the International Court of the Hague regarding the de-encirclement of Artsakh, the leadership of Azerbaijan continues the political course of depopulating Artsakh with the threat and use of force. In its intention to annex the Republic of Artsakh, Azerbaijan does not shy away from anti-human measures and terrorist actions. Natural gas and electricity supply disruptions, intimidation of the civilian population and restrictions on free movement, and recently, on March 5, the shooting of policemen while performing their official duties, prove that talks about direct dialogue are unacceptable under such conditions. At the same time, we are convinced that the Karabakh conflict, as an issue of the international agenda, should be resolved through negotiations with the mediation and guarantees of relevant international structures, in particular, with the involvement of Minsk Group co-chair countries endowed with such authority. The military and political leadership of Azerbaijan misinforms its own public and international institutions with various propaganda tricks, with the aim of creating an illusion of an "era of peace" in the conditions of humanitarian pressures and intimidation against the people of Artsakh. The factions of the National Assembly of the Republic of Artsakh, expressing the will and position of the people, demand from the authorities of the Republic of Armenia to adhere to the 1992 resolution of the Supreme Council of the Republic of Armenia. to the decision of July 8 and not to question the right to self-determination of the people of Artsakh. All factions of the Artsakh Parliament reaffirm their loyalty to the fundamental documents expressing the will of our people and will continue to be guided by the ideas and principles arising from them.
