Russia does not recognize Karabakh - State Duma deputy

Baku / 14.10.19 / Turan: The head of the Russia-Azerbaijan Inter-Parliamentary Friendship Group, deputy of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Saveliev, commented on the speech of his colleague, State Duma deputy, Konstantin Zatulin, that Russia supports Nagorno-Karabakh.

Saveliev"s comment sent to Turan says, "It is very strange to hear statements that justice is on the side of the self-named Artsakh, because it has not been officially recognized by anyone, including Armenia itself.

To inform on behalf of the Russian people that this Artsakh will receive the support of the Russians is extremely presumptuous. The official position of Russia is indicated very clearly - the territorial conflict of Azerbaijan and Armenia should be resolved strictly within the framework of international law. That is why our state does not recognize any Artsakh on behalf of all its citizens.

There are only two sides to the conflict - Azerbaijan and Armenia. There is Nagorno-Karabakh - the occupied territory of Azerbaijan. There is a terrible Khojaly tragedy in which hundreds of peaceful Azerbaijanis died, and which is still not recognized as a war crime. Here it is necessary to understand, to seek justice for the dead and those who have lost their home. "

On October 11, Zatulin, speaking at the forum "Friends of Artsakh", said, "Russia, as a country participating in the Minsk Group for the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, seeks to prevent its resolution by military means, advocating for a peaceful solution, everywhere. When an attempt was made in April 2016 to resolve this issue by force, Russia, for its part, did everything possible to stop it."

"Despite all the threats and sanctions, we recognized the self-determination of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, we supported the return of the Republic of Crimea to their native harbor, and we are involved in efforts to pacify the civil war in the east of Ukraine, because we cannot allow further violence against our compatriots on earth Donbass.

I am sure that the Russian Federation as a state will not allow an unjust solution to the Karabakh conflict. The Russian people first value conscience and justice; and they are on your side."- 02D-
