ArmInfo.For us, this not a simple part of land , this is a place where people live, which are the most valuable product of Artsakh, political expert Vladimir Evseev, the Russian observer stated at the press conference dedicated to the results of Constitutional referendum on February 21.
"We saw how did they behave in a complicated situation. They resist honorably all the troubles and problems they face. I had an option to participate as an observer to the parliamentary elections in Artsakh, and already at that time we selected several places to visit, which were critical enough from the point of security, because we had to understand how the people of Artsakh would resist the external enemies. This time one of our goals is to understand, how did the tragic developments of 2016 affect the people. We saw that people are ready to return to the village of Talish, which which was under the direct strike of the enemy. What we saw states that Artsakh people will never give up their land to any enemy," Evseev mentioned.

Meanwhile, Alexander Skakov, the Coordinator of Working Group of the Center for Central Asia and Caucasus Research stated that Russian observers have no questions in respect to organization and implementation of the referendum. "What is the most important - we saw the confidence of the people which is sure on its victory," Skakov said. Skakov stated also that he is not concerned about the "black list" of Azerbaijan. " I could tell only that people who visit Armenia, and not Nagorno Karabakh, also face troubles during their visits to Azerbaijan after that. This is not normal. One of the basic human rights is the right for free relocation,' he mentioned.
