Below is a statement released by NKR Foreign Ministry.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic
states that Azerbaijan continues to actively violate the cease-fire
along the entire line of contact between the armed forces of the NKR
and AR. On June 18, 2012, at 8:15 am, as a result of gross violation
by the Azerbaijani armed forces, conscript of the NKR Defense Army
Aram S. Gyulnazarian, born in 1993, was killed.
The next provocation by Azerbaijan is an open challenge to the OSCE,
the OSCE Minsk Group co-chair states, a boycott of previous commitments
and agreements and an attempt to disrupt the upcoming Paris meeting
of Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan. A Óorresponding note,
which reflects the official viewpoint of the NKR authorities on this
issue, is submitted to the Office of the Personal Representative of
the OSCE Chairman-in-Office.
We condemn the aggressive and criminal actions of Azerbaijan and
declare that the responsibility for the further escalation of tension
rests with the Azerbaijani party. Such ongoing criminal tricks of
Azerbaijan force us to resort to adequate retaliatory measures.
We believe that the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe
(OSCE) should pass from unaddressed statements to tough estimates and
sanctions against Azerbaijan for its armed-force policy, for impeding
a peaceful settlement, arousing hatred, and unleashing a new war in
the region.
The Nagorno-Karabakh Republic reaffirms its commitment to the
settlement of the Azerbaijani-Karabakh conflict by exceptionally
peaceful means and its readiness to permanently carry out the existing
obligations of the parties to maintain the ceasefire provided by
the February 5, 1995 agreement, which was signed by the heads of the
Defense Offices of the NKR, RA, and AR.
The NKR Foreign Ministry expresses its confidence that the
international community will call upon the Azerbaijani authorities to
abandon the futile policy of blackmail, threats and acts of sabotage
and to return to a constructive dialogue for achieving lasting peace
in the region and a comprehensive settlement of the conflict."
