Yerevan, 25 August: The approaches of the president of the Nagornyy
Karabakh republic [NKR], Arkadiy Gukasyan, to the resolution of
the Karabakh problem are fully harmonious with the approaches of
the Justice bloc, Stepan Demirchyan, leader of the opposition bloc,
told reporters today.

"We are confident that no agreement can be signed without the NKR
leadership’s participation," he stressed. Asked if the NKR differed
from Armenia by a high level of development of democracy, Demirchyan
said: "Karabakh does not have the lawlessness that we encounter
in Armenia."
