The Defense Ministry of the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh republic
has denied Azerbaijan's reports about an exchange of fire at the
contact line between the Azeri and Armenianarmed forces.
"Azerbaijan has circulated misinformation once again. Nothing of
the sort happened. Units of the Nagorno-Karabakh Defense Army are
continuing to strictly observe the ceasefire," Nagorno-Karabakh
Defense Ministry spokesman Senor Asratian told Interfax.
The Azeri Defense Ministry reported earlier on Wednesday that a private
of the Azeri armed forces had been wounded as a result of ceasefire
violations by the Armenian army in the Fuzuli district. One Armenian
soldier was also killed and several were wounded in the incident,
the ministry said.
The ceasefire between Azerbaijan and Armenia was established in May
1994. The OSCE regularly posts its representatives at the contact line
to get information on the observance of the ceasefire agreements by
the parties.
The Armenian Foreign Ministry told Interfax that Foreign Minister
Edward Nalbandian would meet with the co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk
Group for settling the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict in Warsaw on April 12.
