Hraparak: Russia will recognize Karabakh’s independence
There is great probability that what did not happen in case of Armenia and Karabakh will take place in case of Moldova and Transnistria. Although Armenian authorities claim that there has been no pressure from Russia in the issue of joining the Customs Union, Hraparak’s sources say that Russia said the same thing in relation to both Transnistria and Karabakh.
According to the paper, Russia openly shows that it intends to recognize the independence of Transnistria just as it recognized the independence of South Ossetia and Abkhazia.
“Armenia was told clearly that Russia will recognize the independence of Karabakh, make Karabakh part of the Customs Union and establish a customs terminal between the “European Armenia” and Customs Union member Karabakh,” the paper says.
