STEPANAKERT, JULY 21, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. On July 20, Deputy
Foreign Minister of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic Masis Mayilian
received Field Assistant of Personal Representative of the OSCE

delivered NKR Deputy Foreign Minister a report of the Office of the
OSCE PRC-i-O on inflammations, which took place in the contact-line
zone of Azerbaijan and Nagorno Karabakh armed forces.

As it was informed before on June 15, 2006, the NKR Ministry of Foreign
Affairs addressed to the Office of the OSCE Personal Representative
Chairman-in-Office with a request to conduct a monitoring in bordering
with Azerbaijan zone for giving real estimate to the situation and
making certain of the strained accusations of Baku on the alleged
burnings of the adjoining settlements on the territories controlled by
the Nagorno Karabakh Republic. On July 3-5 the OSCE mission conducted
a series of monitorings in the bordering zone. By the results of the
monitorings a corresponding report was prepared.

According to NKR Foreign Ministry Press Service, at present the
document is being studied at the NKR Ministry of Foreign Affairs and
one can already ascertain that the OSCE mission did not reveal any
facts of damage caused by fire to the settlements, situated in the
NKR security zone, as the Azerbaijani side tried to present.
