"With adherence to dialog and peace as the key aspect of the Declaration, it recognizes that the settlement process will take a long period of time. "I would like to remind that Gultekin Gajiyeva, a member of the Azerbaijani delegation to PACE, said that the only compromise on the Azerbaijani part will be agreement to further habitation of Armenians in Karabakh.

These are statements made by the Azeri political elite and it's obvious that the Karabakh conflict will last dozens of years if such logic prevails," Babayan said. Top stories Authorities said a total of 192 Azerbaijani troops were killed and 511 were wounded during Azerbaijan’s offensive.
