AZERBAIJAN CONDEMNS KARABAKH PRESIDENTIAL BALLOT
By empty (8/7/2002 issue of the CACI Analyst)
In a statement released on 7 August, Azerbaijan's Foreign Ministry condemned as "a provocation and a gross violation of international norms" and "a new challenge to Azerbaijan's territorial integrity" the planned presidential election in the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. It said legitimate state organs can be elected in Karabakh only after the conflict has been resolved peacefully and the Azerbaijani population of Karabakh has been allowed to return, according to Turan on 8 August. The statement said Armenia "will bear the responsibility" for allowing the ballot to take place.Visit also
