/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Head of the Armenian delegation to PACE Davit
Harutyunyan appreciated positively adoption of a joint declaration
on Nagorno Karabakh.

"The most important fact is that the parties to Karabakh conflict
pledged to continue peaceful talks," he told a news conference in
Yerevan today.

Commenting on concerns that the Moscow declaration will completely
exclude Nagorno Karabakh from talks, Mr. Harutyunyan said that it
will not happen, as talks without NKR participation are impossible.

"The August war in South Ossetia proved that use of force leads to a
deadlock," he said, adding that talks demand compromise from all sides.
