Human rights record in Nagorno Karabach better than in the Republic of Armenia ("8th European Country of Origin Information Seminar Vienna, 28 - 29 June 2002: Final Report - Armenia - co-funded by the EU Odysseus Programme") [#9877],  [ID 3366]

"What has been said above about human rights and other issues only holds true for Armenia, but not for Nagorno Karabakh. For instance, compared to the Republic Armenia there seems to be more democracy in Nagorno Karabakh. More specifically, parliament wields greater power, corruption is not prevalent and women have more rights in Nagorno Karabakh, even two ministers are women - the Foreign Minister and the Minister for Health. Concerning its international status, it has to be noted that in 1994, Nagorno Karabakh intended to accede to Armenia, because originally, in 1923, it had been divided from Armenia and given to Azerbaijan. However, the Karabakh administration soon realised that the International Community would not accept that, as a unification of Nagorno Karabakh and Armenia was perceived to prompt not a war between Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan, but between Armenia and Azerbaijan. As a consequence, the local administration decided to establish its own republic. Without recognition by the International Community, however, the residents of Nagorno Karabakh are not yet free to decide if they want to have their own independent state or if they want to unite with Armenia. Even Armenia has not officially recognised Nagorno Karabakh and there is no provision in the Armenian constitution which specifically refers to Nagorno Karabakh. What seems currently most important for the people living in Nagorno Karabakh is to know that they are not under Azerbaijani rule anymore. It is also symbolically and economically significant that Nagorno Karabakh has introduced the Armenian currency."
