What are the borders of Nagorno-Karabakh?

Re: What are the borders of Nagorno-Karabakh?

They're trying to cause trouble for RA by saying hey look they're claiming Artsakh, they're aggressors. That would be the drawback to Armenian govt. representatives claiming openly that Artsakh is part of Armenia before there's international recognition of its independence, right?

That is, I believe, the main reason why the govt has never promoted the use of the map with the territories surrounding the not-so-former NKAO. The main reason for that lays on the fact that NKAO is the only territory with the capacity for pressing for a status, and the only territory which will see changes if the NK issue is ever to be resolved.

And I also believe that the Azeris being behind this is a more likely theory, they have lots of experience cracking Armenian websites and seems that they like to check out every Armenians website looking for something to use on their propaganda, and as we know, if they find nothing...they create it...

I found a global railway information website, and look at their map of Azerbaijan: http://www.bueker.net/trainspotting/...n--artsakh.php

And read the text below the map, it refers to the Artsakh Republic.

I quickly went to the "About" section and found that the maps were all provided by a man named Boris Chomenko, probably a Russian

Wow, great find dude. I'm surprised not only at the map but the "Artsakh Republic" wording, though I am a little saddened to see that Armenia's map remains inaccurate. Also surprised the Azeris haven't stumbled on this already.

Seyran Ohanyan: Nagorno Karabakh cannot be part of Azerbaijan

/PanARMENIAN.Net/
Armenian leadership will make every effort in achieving progress in the Nagorno Karabakh peaceful settlement in 2010, " RA Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan told students and faculty of Yerevan State University today.
According to the minister, NKR cannot be part of Azerbaijan. "In this context, we raise three questions: the right of NKR people to self-determination should be respected, Nagorno Karabakh should have a land connection with Armenia and its security must be ensured by international guarantees," defense minister stressed.
Karabakh-Azerbaijani conflict started in 1988. In response to peaceful demands of the Armenians of Karabakh, constituted 80 per cent of the population of Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region (Nagorny Karabakh), Azerbaijan had unleashed aggression against the peaceful population. As a result of the national-liberation war of 1991-1994 Nagorno Karabakh Republic was proclaimed. NKR Defense Army has also established a security zone around Nagorno Karabakh, including the 7 regions. On May 11, 1994, agreement was reached on the cease-fire (Bishkek Protocol). Currently, France, the United States and Russia, OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs are involved in the settlement of the conflict.



Seyran Ohanian's definition of borders worrying.

OK so I have installed the new 2010 version of Enciclopedia Encarta (Encarta Encyclopedia; available in Latin America), and when checking out both the portal of Armenia and Azerbaijan, I came across to these maps:

The Republic of Armenia


The Republic of Azerbaijan

I guess the above is not THAT bad considering this is the 2010 Encarta Encycopledia but obviously it is not enough as by now we all know Armenia and Iran share a border with the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic.

What is the real point of the above picture ?If they wont to show the De-Facto situation they must show the maps that we use here which shows the current border-lines.
Using maps of 1988 is good only for azeris and there government that would like to have one more chance to go back at those times.

Although it's not enough, it's an advance. The point here was to show that at least they are not putting NK under Azerbaijan's territory as they did in previous editions. Since I use Encarta it has always presented the former NKAO bordered with a thin line with the label de-facto independent, de-jure part of Azerbaijan.

A very useful map that situates Artsakh on the world map.

Re: What are the borders of Nagorno-Karabakh?

Would be cool if we could get that borderline all along Irans border. It will choke off Nakhichevan. Russia may want this also-lets hope it happens.
