STEPANAKERT. – Azerbaijan better to recognize the inevitable fact that Artsakh [Nagorno-Karabakh] is an independent country situated on the part of the historical Karabakh territory, Artsakh President’s Spokesperson David Babayan told Armenian News-NEWS.am in response to the request by the agency to comment on the Azerbaijani FM Elmar Mammadyarov’s statements at the UN and his claims about the perspectives of ‘Armenians and Azerbaijanis living next to each other in the Karabakh region’.

According to Babayan, Mammadyarov’s statements may be targeted at preparing own citizens to the recognition of Artsakh’s independence.

“Historical Nagorno-Karabakh territory is larger - about 25,000 sq. /k, while current territory of Artsakh is only part of it and the other part makes Azerbaijan’s territory. So currently we do live next to each other and peace is what matters,” Babayan stated. “Nagorno-Karabakh is an independent country. And Azerbaijan is better to recognize the inevitable fact.”
