The co-chairmen of the OSCE Minsk Group for the settlement of the
Nagornyy Karabakh conflict are concerned over the situation on the
border between Armenia's Tavush Region and Azerbaijan's Qazax
District.
The Russian co-chairman of the OSCE Minsk Group, Yuriy Merzlyakov, has
said in an interview with Regnum news agency that the OSCE co-chairs
are concerned over the situation in the area of the water reservoir
[on the border]. "In our assessments we are guided by the reports of
Andrzej Kasprzyk, the personal representative of the OSCE's
chairman-in-office, who monitored the contact line between the
Armenian and Azerbaijani armed forces on 12-15 June," Merzlyakov
noted. The co-chairman said that on the basis of his reports, the
envoys of the OSCE Minsk Group countries in Baku and Yerevan had
informed the presidents about their concerns and called on them to
prevent the escalation of tension. "The conclusion is as follows -
the cease-fire is being violated, and this has to be stopped as soon
as possible," the Russian co-chairman noted.
