    OSCE MISSION IN ARMENIA TO CHECK FACTS OF SETTLEMENT IN AZERI DISTRICTS

    Public Television of Armenia, Yerevan
    29 Jan 05

    (Presenter in studio speaking over video of the OSCE mission) The OSCE
    factfinding mission has arrived in Yerevan to check whether there are
    settlements on the (occupied Azerbaijani) territories. The experts
    will visit the seven districts outside Nagornyy Karabakh. The mission
    appointed by the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairmen includes experts from
    Finland, Italy, Switzerland and Germany. The mission is led by an
    OSCE expert from Germany, Emily Margarethe Haber. The representatives
    will not be accompanied by anyone from the Azerbaijani side.

    After the mission completes its work, the experts will prepare a
    technical report in 8-10 days and submit it to the OSCE Minsk Group
    co-chairmen. It is expected that the co-chairmen will issue a
    statement on the facts they discover. The Azerbaijani side says that
    they presented the members of the mission, while in Baku, with video
    and audio tapes of settlements in these territories. Russian
    co-chairman Yuriy Merzlyakov said in his brief interview in Yerevan
    that they (Azerbaijanis) say there are settlements in these
    territories.

    It is necessary to find out who they are, where they have come from
    and why they have settled there.

    (Yuriy Merzlyakov speaking in Russian with Armenian voice-over) Our
    route has been determined. We will be in Stepanakert tomorrow morning
    and visit the districts around Nagornyy Karabakh every day in one
    week. It means that we will visit one district every day. As for the
    monitoring in the north of Karabakh, this is a separate issue and
    should be carried out separately.
