Head of RPA Faction: Recognition of Karabakh's independence by Massachusetts House of Representatives to be followed by similar decisions of other states

The recognition of Karabakh's independence by the Massachusetts House of Representatives will be followed by similar decisions of other states, Galust Sahakyan, Head of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia Faction, told ArmInfo.   

He said that the Armenian diplomacy's efforts are aimed at making the international community recognize the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, and such decisions of the U.S. states certainly make their essential contribution to the recognition process. "The more states, cities and countries recognize the NKR, the better. Everyone should know the truth, and the truth is that the people of Nagorno-Karabakh have an
undisputable right to build an independent, sovereign and strong state", Sahakyan said.

To recall, on August 6 the House of Representatives of the State of Massachussetts, USA, adopted a resolution on recognition of Karabakh's independence. The document calls on the U.S. President Barack Obama and the Congress to support the sovereignty and independence of the NKR.

UK Security minister Dan Jarvis has said the government will not tolerate "covert and calculated" attempts to interfere with the UK's sovereign affairs, after MI5 warned MPs of the risk from Chinese spies.
