Kasprzyk expressed concern about worsening situation on the contact
line between Armenian and Azerbaijani forces in recent days, as well
as about coverage of these incidents in the press, the statement is
on official website of the Organization for Security and Cooperation
in Europe.
"Recent reports of multiple incidents along the front lines are
cause for concern. Every casualty is a tragedy for the families and
other people involved. The OSCE Chairperson-in-Office and the Minsk
Group Co-chairs addressed this issue in their statement of 2 August,"
said Andrzej Kasprzyk.
The ambassador said that in order to de-escalate the situation he
will continue liaising closely with the sides, including at the
highest levels.
"I and my team will continue our monitoring activities that are
organized in co-operation with the sides, most recently on 1 August,"

approach the Line of Contact or the Armenian-Azerbaijani border,
receive information from the respective sides concerning ceasefire
violations and the general situation. However, as the ambassador noted,
the monitoring is held in one specific location only. However, the
ambassador stressed, monitoring is carried out in one particular place.
"We also offer the opportunity to the local commanders to address
issues of mutual concern and defuse tensions," the Ambassador stated.
He recalled that the reports from the monitoring exercises are
submitted to the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office and members of the OSCE
Minsk Group.
"Reports of incidents are also passed on by my Office to the relevant
OSCE structures. We do not comment publicly either on the course of
the respective monitoring exercises, or on their findings. Any press
reports of this character are not based on information provided by
my office," said Andrzej Kasprzyk.
