BAKU, August 03, 10:42 /ITAR-TASS/. Azerbaijan blamed Armenia for a
deteriorating situation in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict area,
Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry said in a statement made public on
Sunday.
Moscow concerned about deteriorating situation in Karabakh region
In the last few days Armenian military forces "violating the ceasefire
regime in different directions of Armenian-Azerbaijani state border
and the line of contact attacked Azerbaijani army positions several
times," the ministry said. "These Armenian provocative acts have
mounted tension sharply along the frontline and have caused major
casualties. The full brunt of responsibility for the current dangerous
situation is laid on Yerevan state authorities which gave instructions
to take such provocative steps," the ministry added.
For his part, Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian blamed
Azerbaijan Saturday for an aggravating situation in the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict zone. Baku "neglects appeals from the states
which co-chair the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in
Europe (OSCE) Minsk Group to refrain from provocative actions and
deterioration of the situation." "Rejecting international community's
initiatives to create mechanisms for investigating incidents
Azerbaijan assumes responsibility for breaking the ceasefire,"
Nalbandian affirmed.
Tension has been growing sharply in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict area
in the last few days.
Twelve Azerbaijani army servicemen have been killed and several more
wounded as a result of conflict escalation in the last few days,
Azerbaijani Defence Ministry said.
Meanwhile, a 25-year-old Armenian serviceman was killed in a shootout,
spokesman for the Armenian defence minister Artsrun Oganesian said.
