Nagorno-Karabakh, De Facto: 19 Years of Independence

By Naira Hayrumyan
ArmeniaNow correspondent
The self-declared Nagorno Karabakh Republic celebrates its 19th anniversary today, September 2, with events dedicated to this day in 1991, and amid rising interests in efforts to see NKR internationally recognized.

Nearly two decades since the Regional Council of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region [of the former Azerbaijani SSR] and the District Council of the Shahumyan region declared independence, a bill “On the recognition of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic” is expected to be discussed at the National Assembly of Armenia early next month.
