    PARLIAMENTARY OFFICIAL: VIOLATION OF CEASEFIRE BY ARMENIA NEGATIVELY AFFECTS NEGOTIATION PROCESS

    Serious and intense violation in the recent time of ceasefire by
    the Armenian side negatively affects the negotiation process, deputy
    chairman of the Azerbaijani Parliament Bahar Muradova told reporters
    on Thursday.

    "This is an indication that Armenia, which is one of the parties to
    the negotiations, takes destructive position and its position in the
    negotiation process is at odds with the real position," she said.

    Recent activities of the Armenian side cast a shadow on the
    achievements and the prospects, Muradova said.

    Due to the fact that in recent days the frequent violation of the
    ceasefire coincided with the visit of U.S. Secretary of State Hillary
    Clinton to the region, deputy speaker said that recent events have
    forced to put forward different ideas.

    "But it is obvious that the Armenians continue to turn to the heralds
    of the interests of others," she said.

    Recently, the ceasefire has intensively been violated on the front
    line. At 06:30 on June 5 Armenian sabotage group's efforts to enter
    Azerbaijani Armed Forces' positions in Ashagi Eskipara village in the
    Gazakh region failed and it retreated by suffering losses. As a result
    of the fight, 4 soldiers of Azerbaijani Armed Forces were killed.

    Another Azerbaijani soldier was killed as a result of fire opened
    from nameless heights in Gazakh region.

    The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
    when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
    armed forces have occupied 20 per cent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
    including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven 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 peace negotiations.

    Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
    resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
    surrounding regions.
