COMMENTARY OF THE NKR MFA PRESS SERVICE
Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Nagorno-Karabakh Republic
2010-09-09 16:30
During the last visit of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmen to
Stepanakert, French mediator Bernard Fussier, answering the
journalists' questions, stated that "...we crossed the contact-line
and not the border".
Mr. Fussier is an experienced diplomat and he wasn't mistaken
saying that the Co-Chairmen had crossed the contact-line and not the
border, for two reasons. First, the OSCE MG Co-Chairmen crossed the
contact-line of the NKR and AR armed forces from the NKR territory
proper under Azerbaijan's occupation so far. And second, this is
the section of the contact-line that is gradually turning into
a confrontation-line of the NKR and AR armed forces, due to the
persistent and aggressive efforts of Azerbaijan.
Just on this reason, the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairmen conducted
personally the monitoring, crossing the contact-line and aiming at
the reduction of confrontation between the NKR and AR armed forces.
