Unrecognized republic from 2024 Nagorno-Karabakh ceases to exist. The corresponding decree was signed by its president Samvel Shahramanyan.
The decree states the necessity of dissolving all state institutions and organizations subordinate to Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) before January 1, 2024, as well as the termination of the existence of the Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh)).
The population of Nagorno-Karabakh, including those outside the region, will have to familiarize themselves with Azerbaijan's proposals regarding the terms of reintegration. After that, each resident will be able to decide independently whether to stay in the region.
The ruling will enter into force immediately after its publication.
Recall that on September 19, the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense announced the launch of “anti-terrorist measures of a local character”; against Armenian groups in Karabakh. At the time, a large amount of shelling was reported in Nagorno-Karabakh. Yerevan denied the presence of Armenian troops in the region.
Later that day, Baku announced conditions for the cessation of counter-terrorist operations, including the surrender and disarmament of armed groups in the region and the self-dissolution of local authorities.
