    OSCE TO MONITOR CONTACT LINE BETWEEN ARMENIAN, AZERBAIJANI ARMIES

    Trend
    Nov 6 2012
    Azerbaijan

    Monitoring will be held on the contact line between Armenian and
    Azerbaijani armed forces in the territory of Alibeyli village in
    Azerbaijani Tovuz region on Nov.7, the Azerbaijani Defence Ministry
    told Trend.

    The monitoring will be held on the Azerbaijani side by the OSCE
    Chairman-in-Office Personal Representative Andrzej Kasprzyk's office
    coordinator Peter Keay and field assistant Jiri Aberle.

    The monitoring will be held on the opposite side, which the
    international community recognizes as Azerbaijani territory, by OSCE
    Chairman-in-Office Personal Representative Andrzej Kasprzyk's personal
    assistant William Pryor and field assistant Christo Christov.

    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.
