THE AUTHORITES OF THE NK RELEASED A LETTER TO CONDOLEEZZA RISE

Official

The NK Foreign Minister Georgi Petrosyan and the NK Police Chief Armen Isagulov released a joint letter to the USA State Vice - Secretary and the Chief of the USA State Secretary Bureau combating drug transfers.

The concern of the NK authorities was determined by the review on the international strategic control on drugs in which it was mentioned that Nagorno - Karabakh is a transit area for sedative drugs transfers. By the way, there was no mention of Kharabakh in the reviews of the previous years.

“We disagree with the fact that unverified data are used in the review. It is evident that using unwarranted accusations Azerbaijan hopes that international society will view Kharabakh as a territory without control which is beyond the law,” the following was said in the letter. “On this score we assure you that Nagorno - Karabakh is not a transit area and this is not determined by the absence of road - communication net because of the constant blockade but by the preventive measures taken by the NK legislative bodies.”

In their letter the NK authorities expressed their readiness to receive expert observation group in NK that will give a just assessment after the survey. “In this way all the concerns connected with the matter will vanish. Otherwise the concerns may complicate the peaceful settlement of the conflict and prevent the prospect of establishing stability and peace.”

By the way, the copy of the letter was also sent to Condoleezza Rise, the OSCE Minsk group Co-Chair Steven Mann and the Drug Regulating National Service Chief John Walters.
