Monitoring, held on the contact line between Armenian and Azerbaijani
armed forces in the territory of Alibeyli village in Azerbaijani
Tovuz region on Nov.7, revealed no incident, the Azerbaijani Defence
Ministry told Trend on Wednesday.
The monitoring was 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 was 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.
