The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic
addressed a letter to the OSCE CiO George Papandreou in connection
with an incident on the Line of Contact between the armed forces of
NKR and Azerbaijan on December 20, 2009. The letter, in particular,
reads that on December 20 of this year a woman was shot dead from
the Azerbaijani positions in the Aghdam direction of the Contact
Line, as she was moving ahead towards a military outpost of the
NKR Defense Army. "It is not the first time that local residents,
forcibly settled in frontier areas and used for military purposes, are
trying to come over to the Nagorno Karabakh side due to intolerable
conditions", - the letter says. The NKR Ministry of Foreign Affairs
called the attention of the Office of the Personal Representative of
the Chairman-in-Office to the fact that the specified incident had
occurred as a result of violation of the cease-fire by the Azerbaijani
party, while servicemen of the NKR Defense Army tried to undertake
all possible measures to prevent the tragic death of the elderly
woman. A copy of the letter was sent to the Personal Representative
of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk and the
OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs, Ambassadors Yury Merzlyakov of Russia,
Bernard Fassier of France, and Robert Bradtke of the United States.
