Representatives of three major Nagorno-Karabakh parties have put forward a bill that would make Russian the Armenian-populated territory’s second official language.
The bill cites Karabakh’s history of “cultural, military and economic links” with Russia. It says that Russian has remained many Karabakh Armenians’ “second language of communication” since the Soviet breakup and that giving it an official status would help to deepen ties with Russia “in all spheres.”
The bill was drafted by legislators affiliated with the Free Fatherland party of Arayik Harutiunian, the Karabakh president, and two other parties represented in Karabakh’s parliament. The three groups together control the majority of parliament seats.
