When Armenia and Azerbaijan joined the Council of Europe, they made
their choice, reinstating their committeemen to the peaceful settlement
of the Karabakh conflict, Secretary General of the Council of Europe
Terry Davis said in response to ArmInfo question during the dinner
with journalists.

"Non-accomplishment of this commitment will lead to extremely serious
results and expelling of the aggressor county from the council of
Europe, since it will mean a coarse violation of the pledges of
Armenia and Azerbaijan to the organization, CoE Secretary General
underlined. He added that he will get very upset if Armenia and
Azerbaijan do not fulfill their promise. Terry Davis expressed
gratitude to the Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan for
constantly informing him about the state of affairs. He emphasized
about the special interest in the South Caucasus region and reminded
that he was once a rapporteur on Nagorno Karabakh. Terry Davis stressed
the importance of the rapid resolution of the Karabakh conflict from
the point of view of human destinies in the conflict zone. "A great
number of people died in this conflict. It is necessary to find a
solution that will come from the interests of Armenia, Azerbaijan
and Nagorno Karabakh," Mr. Davis concluded.
