    Azerbaijan, Baku, 13 February / Trend corr. E.Huseynli / Under the
    mandate of private representative of the OSCE functioning chairman,
    monitoring is planned to be held on the Azerbaijani-Armenian frontline
    near the Tapgaragoyunlu village of the Tartar region of Azerbaijan,
    Azerbaijan Defense Ministry reported.

    The conflict between the two countries of the South Caucasus began
    in 1988, due to the Armenian territorial claims against Azerbaijan.

    Since 1992, the Armenian Armed Forces have occupied 20% of Azerbaijan,
    including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and its seven neighboring
    districts. In 1994, Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement
    which ended active hostilities. The Co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group
    (Russia, France, and the US) are currently holding the peaceful
    negotiations.

    The OSCE Chairman-in-Office's special envoy, Andrzej Kasprzyk and his
    field assistants- Jaslan Nurtazin and Imre Palatinus are the in-charge
    of monitoring the Azerbaijani side of frontline. Field assistants
    Miroslav Vimetal and Antal Herdiks will carry out the monitoring
    on the Armenian side of the front, in the territory internationally
    recognized as Azerbaijani land.
