NKR Parliament: The achievements of the Artsakh Movement  lost due to  the "adventurous "policies of the current Armenian authorities 

ArmInfo. The achievements of the Artsakh Movement, gained at the cost of severe  hardships and an unspeakable struggle, have been lost as a result of the adventurous "policy" of the current Armenian authorities and gross violations of the constitutions of the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Artsakh, as noted in a statement issued by the National Assembly of Artsakh on the occasion of the 38th anniversary of the Artsakh Movement. 

The statement recalls that 38 years ago, an extraordinary session of  the Council of People's Deputies of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous  Oblast (NKAO) was held in Stepanakert. A decision was made to  transfer the NKAO from the Azerbaijan SSR to the Armenian SSR, a move  that became fateful for our people over the next four decades.

The Artsakh parliament added that over the course of three decades,  at the cost of the lives of thousands of dedicated individuals and  the heroic struggle of the entire Armenian people, the Armenians of  Artsakh regained their dignity and identity, moving closer to  realizing their age-old dream of  full unity with their Motherland  and state. "However, as a result of the adventurous 'policy' of the  current Armenian authorities, gross violations of the constitutions  of the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Artsakh, as well as  fundamental norms of international law, not only we have lost what  was hard won through severe hardship and unspeakable struggle, but   the Armenians of Artsakh have also faced ethnic cleansing and  genocide, and forced displacement," the NKR legislative body  emphasized.

The NKR National Assembly emphasized that today, the enemy has not  only captured their native Artsakh, but is also issuing so-called  'sentences' on the military-political leadership of Artsakh, taken  hostage, and other captives, based on fabricated charges. The Artsakh  National Assembly added that, at the same time, with the silent  permission of the Armenian authorities, the enemy is destroying  material evidence of the Armenian spiritual heritage-shrines,  monasteries, and churches-in an attempt to erase the Armenian traces  of the region. " As elected representatives of the people of the  Republic of Artsakh, we congratulate the pioneers of the national  liberation struggle of 1988 and all the sons of the Armenian people  worldwide who were inspired by this revival. We express our  condolences to the families of the thousands of martyrs who gave  their lives at every stage of the liberation struggle. In  memory of  our martyrs and for the sake of realizing the thousand-year heroic  history of Artsakh, we preserve the unwavering unity of the people of  Artsakh. We will rely on the determination of our people to return to  their native Artsakh and will make every effort to ensure the return  of our people and the full realization of their inherent right to  self- determination," the parliament concluded.

The statement was signed by the Free Homeland - Regional State  Administration faction, the United Homeland Party, the Justice  faction, the ARF Dashnaktsutyun Party, and the Democratic Party of  Artsakh faction.
