"The biggest success was recognition of Nagorno-Karabakh as a party to the conflict by the international community;" Nikol Pashinyan
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan also presented the diplomatic achievements of the Armenian side on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict in the 2020 War Investigation Commission.
"Didn't the Armenian side have diplomatic success during this period? Of course, he had. For example, the May 12, 1994 ceasefire announcement was a success. But during the history of the conflict, our most tremendous success was the recognition of Nagorno-Karabakh by the international community as a party to the dispute and, thus, to the negotiations. The subjectivity of NK could create at least a dim hope of a perceptible solution to the issue. But the expulsion of Nagorno-Karabakh from the negotiation process destroyed the Armenian vision of settling the problem, even faint hopes. Why? It is not a subject because Nagorno-Karabakh is not a negotiating party. If it is not a subject, there is a risk of making the Armenian interpretation of the right to self-determination internationally understandable, even if it is a theoretical hope, because a natural question arises: who is the self-determination, and where is he?
