NAGORNO-KARABAKH OBSERVES LAW

Social

As it is known, Nagorno-Karabakh Central Election Commission registered Constitutional Right Union's Co-Chair, Grant Khachatryan, as a candidate for Karabakhi presidential election. However, later, the head of the commission remembered, that the candidate isn’t Karabakhi citizen. According to the law, another country citizen is not allowed to become the republic president.

It is remarkable, that in Karabakh this issue is taken more seriously than in Armenia. Though, current Armenian president, Robert Kocharyan, is neither Armenian nor Karabakhi citizen – he is Azerbaijan citizen only.

Thus, abiding by the law, Khachatryan withdrew from the race.
