YEREVAN, 20.06.08. DE FACTO. On June 20, in accordance with the
earlier achieved agreement with the NKR authorities the OSCE mission
conducted a regular monitoring of the contact-line of Nagorno Karabakh
and Azerbaijani armed forces eastward of the settlement of Seysulan,
NKR Martakert region.
According to the NKR MFA Press Office, from the positions of the NKR
Defense Army the monitoring was conducted by Coordinator of the OSCE
office lieutenant colonel Imre Palatinus (Hungary) and Field Assistant
of the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office Antal
Herdich (Hungary).
>From the Azeri side the monitoring group was headed by the Personal
Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office Andrzey Kasprzyk. No
violation of cease-fire regime was fixed.
However, the Azeri side unlike the Karabakh one did not lead the OSCE
mission to their front lines, as a result of which the monitoring
group had to monitor from a more remote distance. Imre Palatinus drew
Ambassador Kasprzyk’s attention to that fact.
The monitoring mission from the Karabakh side was accompanied by
representatives of the NKR Ministries of Defense and Foreign Affairs.
