    Karabakh army capable of ensuring security on front line - NKR minister

    Public Television of Armenia, Yerevan
    17 Mar 05

    [Presenter] An OSCE mission held a monitoring today near the
    Azerbaijani village of Seysulan [occupied village in Tartar
    District]. We obtained information from Artsakh [Nagornyy Karabakh]
    that no incidents or truce violations were registered during the
    monitoring.

    An incident [truce violations] near Seysulan on 7-9 March resulted in
    casualties because of the Azerbaijani side's fault, the Nagornyy
    Karabakh Foreign Ministry has confirmed.

    Today the Nagornyy Karabakh Defence Ministry submitted a report to the
    OSCE mission which said that the Azerbaijani armed forces had opened
    fire on the Karabakh troops to get its positions closer to the
    positions of the Nagornyy Karabakh defence army.

    [Correspondent, over video of trenches] Mr Minister, the news
    disseminated recently by media outlets and various official statements
    prove that the situation on the contact line is not so quite and at
    the same time these news contradict each other. What is going on in
    reality?

    [Nagornyy Karabakh Defence Minister Lt-Gen Seyran Oganyan, captioned,
    shown in trench] True, today the situation on the contact line with
    the Azerbaijani Republic is tense. The Azerbaijani side continues
    firing our positions. It should be noted that trying to get their
    positions closer to the positions of the Karabakh defence army, they
    are creating a tough situation on the contact line.

    In reality, the tension is being created by the Azerbaijani armed
    forces. The Karabakh defence army is taking appropriate measures aimed
    at ensuring security. The army's and units' combat readiness today is
    on the highest level. If there is a need, today we can fulfil our task
    to ensure security of our people.
