"The Moscow declaration on Karabakh creates a definite opportunity for
establishment of atmosphere of trust in the South Caucasus region",
said deputy Foreign Minister of Armenia Arman Kirakosyan.

"The South Caucasus has not been provided with a trilateral format as
integrated cooperation is impossible due to the policy of Azerbaijan
that does not see opportunities for the resolution of the Karabakh
conflict. Though definite changes and achievements can also be
expected in this issue", said Kirakosyan.

According to the deputy Minister, even insignificant steps in this
direction may restore regional cooperation, if there is a will and
trust.

"It is important to demonstrate good will, which will help take
definite steps on formation of the atmosphere of trust in the region",
said Kirakosyan.

According to him, the Moscow declaration repeated the EU approach in
the resolution of the Karabakh conflict, which is a bright proof of
the need to ensure regional cooperation.

"Stable development in the region is indirectly related to the
economic development, modernization of democracy and cooperation and
this can become a good impulse for cooperation between Armenia and the
European Union", said Kirakosyan.
