    Azerbaijan, Baku, 26 August / Trend News corr. K.Zarbaliyeva
    / A monitoring will be held by the personal representative of
    Chairman-in-office of OSCE in the border regions located near the
    Barda-Agdam region on 27 August.

    A source from Azerbaijani Defense Ministry reported that from the
    Azerbaijani side the monitoring would be held by Pieter Ki and Antal
    Herdich, Personal Representative of OSCE Chairman-in-Office.

    >From the Armenian side the monitoring would be held by Irji Aberli
    and Vladimir Chountulov.

    The conflict between the two countries of the South Caucasus began
    in 1988 due to Armenian territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Since
    1992, Armenian Armed Forces have occupied 20% of Azerbaijan including
    the Nagorno-Karabakh region and its seven surrounding districts. In
    1994, Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement at which
    time the active hostilities ended.

    The Co-Chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group ( Russia, France, and the US)
    are currently holding peaceful negotiations to regulate the conflict.
