    YEREVAN

    The OSCE held regular monitoring on the contact line between the
    Armenian and Azerbaijani armed forces in the Tavush (Armenia)-Qazax
    (Azerbaijan) sector yesterday, the press secretary of the Armenian
    Defence Ministry, Col Seyran Shakhsuvaryan, has told Arminfo new
    agency.

    The field assistants to the personal representative of the OSCE
    chairman-in-office, Imre Palatinus (Hungary), Olexandr Samarski
    (Ukraine) and Piter Key (Britain), took part in the monitoring on the
    Armenian side.

    According to the source, radio monitoring, during which OSCE means of
    communications were used to establish contact with OSCE
    representatives taking part in the monitoring on the Azerbaijani side,
    was held at the beginning. As a result of this, the commanders of the
    two sides' military units gave security guarantees to the participants
    in the monitoring.

    The monitoring was preceded by a short briefing in which the governor
    of Tavush Region, Armen Gularyan, noted frequent attacks on the
    Idzhevan-Noyemberyan road from the Azerbaijani side.

    Asked by Palatinus about the reasons for this, the governor said that
    either the Azerbaijani side is not capable of controlling its own
    armed forces or this is the result of belligerent statements made by
    the Azerbaijani authorities.
