The Egyptian mobile phone company Mobinil has suspended its cooperation
with the Karabakh Telecom mobile operator in Azerbaijan's occupied
territories.
After this cooperation was revealed, the Azerbaijani Embassy in Egypt
sent a letter of protest to the Foreign Ministry and the Communications
and IT Ministry.
In response, the Egyptian government officially announced the
cooperation had ended.
Earlier, after the Azerbaijani diplomatic mission's intervention,
another mobile phone company Vodafone Egypt stopped cooperation with
this company.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. -
are currently holding the peace negotiations.
