New public movement created in Nagorno-Karabakh

A new public movement has been created in Nagorno-Karabakh.

The movement has been founded by MP Vitaly Balasanyan (the key rival of NKR President Bako Sahakyan during the last presidential election), Chairman of the NKR Public Council for Foreign Policy and Security Masis Mailyan and President of the Stepanakert Press Club Gegham Balasanyan and has been named "Constitutional Artsakh."

The founders of the movement said on Monday that Nagorno-Karabakh has lots of unsolved problems requiring general public effort and responsibility.

"The current authorities are breaking the constitution and are debarring the people from governing their state. They are building an anti-constitutional corrupt system, where national funds are spent for their personal purposes. As a result, more and more people are leaving the republic," the founders said, adding that their goal is to solve Nagorno-Karabakh's problems and to restore the republic's international image with a view to attain its international recognition.
