/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The project on deployment of peacekeepers in the
zone of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is practically ready. The
contingent will include representatives of EU armed forces, the Echo
newspaper writes. In the words of Finnish Ambassador to South Caucasus
states Terhi Hakala, the opportunity of present of an initial plan of
deployment is not ruled out. «Speaking of it is hard, as there is no
political decision,» she noted.

In his turn Azeri political scientist and head of public forum Eldar
Namazov believes that serious discussion of the issue of deployment of
peacekeepers is premature today. «Deployment of the troops is expected
only after Azerbaijan and Armenia sign a peace agreement. The
technical plan of deployment was already worked out in 90s of the past
century. As the front line has not changed much since then, it can be
assumed that the technical plan exists since that time,» he stated.

At the same time Chief of the Press and PR Department of the Azeri MFA
Tahir Tagizade noted that even if such plan exists today, we know
nothing of it.
