Moscow declaration doesn't predetermine Karabakh conflict resolution
The Moscow declaration signed by the Presidents of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Russia is a document that can't predetermine resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, according to an NKR MP.
During the November 2 meeting, the Presidents Dmitry Medvedev, Serzh Sargsyan and Ilham Aliyev pledged to intensify negotiations to end the Nagorno Karabakh conflict by signing a declaration which envisages resolution of the conflict on the basis of principles and norms of the international law.
"Nagorno Karabakh will be a signatory of the final treaty on the conflict resolution," chairman of NKR parliamentary committee on external relations Vahram Atanesyan told a news conference in Yerevan today.
Touching on Karabakh's participation in the talks, Mr. Atanesyan said that Nagorno Karabakh is an established entity and its participation in talks should fit its status.
