POLITICAL - ADMINISTRATIVE FORMATION OF NAGORNO KARABAGH (1918-1920): During this period Nagorno Karabagh existed as a sovereign, self-governed state formation. The mousavatists were not able to subdue Karabagh, the citadel of the Armenians in East Transcaucasus (Azerbaijan) even with the help of Turkish troops. Turkey failed to meet its goal of extinguishing the Armenian people of Azerbaijan as one of the main ethnic elements of East Transcaucasus. However, as the result of the Turkish intervention the ethnic-political disagreement between the Caucasus Tatars and Armenians in relation with the whole of Azerbaijan was incorporated with the international-political processes as the "Karabagh problem".

POLITICAL, LEGAL AND ETHICAL CONDITIONS FOR RESOLVING THE PROBLEM:
a) Republic of Azerbaijan should admit that there is no relation between AzR and the Armenian territories passed to the former AzSSR
b) Baku officials should publicly apologize for the barbaric actions against the Armenian people of Azerbaijan
c) Political rights of the Armenians of Azerbaijan should be restored and the security for their return to Azerbaijan, their homeland should be ensured.

PRINCIPLE OF TERRITORIAL INTEGRITY cannot be applied to AzR in light of the applicable international agreements and covenants on the territories on which AzR lays claim.

PROBLEM: In the course of dissolution of the Soviet Union four states, i.e., Republic of Armenia, Georgia, Republic of Azerbaijan (AzR) and Republic of Nagorno Karabagh (RMK) declared about their independence in 1991. Considering these events in the light of the political-legal realities of the USSR as a state in dissolution, the West acknowledged the new states in the post-Soviet area as the political-legal successors within the borders of the former Soviet republics. Therefore, the Republic of Azerbaijan, but not, RMK, was recognized as an independent state. However, the underlying legal grounds prove that following such principle, i.e., the acknowledgement of the new states within the borders of the former Soviet republics, the Republic of Azerbaijan should not be recognized as a sovereign state because:
a) in the context the political and legal realities of Soviet Union the issue of the ethnic and historical Armenian territories of the former AzSSR was not its internal affair,
b) during the period from September till December, 1991, in the course of dissolution of the USSR, before the acknowledgement of the AzR by the international community, it was established in the territories which no longer belonged to AzR de jure.
