In case of the official recognition of the NKR, everyone will first hear about this from the President of Armenia, Serzh Sargsyan,” President’s Spokesman Vladimir Hakobyan has declared.
“Azerbaijan has lived in tyranny for such a long time that even the highest governmental circles have forgotten about the existence of people outside prisons in other countries, who constitute opposition and who have the right to come forth with legislative initiatives. And what a surprise – in other countries the governments are obliged to put the opposition’s initiatives on their session agenda and discuss them,” Vladimir Hakobyan said in comments to News.am.
The comments come after statements of the Azerbaijani Presidential administration, the Foreign Ministry and other officials regarding the draft law on recognizing the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) on the agenda of the Armenian Government session.
“Currently Armenia is watching the “parade” of delirious statements of Azerbaijan’s different high-ranking officials, which besides surprising can only amuse. One gets an impression that even books on democracy, which can be read in order to get informed, have disappeared from Azerbaijan,” he said.
Hakobyan also added: “Let no one doubt that in case of the official recognition of the NKR, everyone will first hear about this from the President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan. ”
During its forthcoming sitting on Thursday the Armenian Government will consider the draft law on recognition of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic co-authored by opposition MPs Zaruhi Postanjyan and Hrant Bagratyan.
