ArmInfo. NKR Defense Army fully controls over the situation in the
contact-line of NKR and Azerbaijani Armed Forces, Press Secretary of
NKR Defense Ministry, Lt. Colonel Senor Asratyan told ArmInfo.
He said the situation is calm at present. The Azerbaijani party
regularly violates the ceasefire regime. ‘They use small arms mainly’,
S. Asratyan said. As regards the information by the Azerbaijan party
that allegedly the Armenian and Karabakh parties keep violating the
ceasefire which results in casualties also among the population,
S. Asratyan said the Azerbaijani leadership concealed the casualties
after the attempt to seize one of the post of NKR Armed Forces and now
tries to lay them on ‘new violations of the ceasefire’. S. Asratyan
also added that negotiations for crisis monitoring by OSCE are
underway. The monitoring planned for the last weekend was failed
because of the Azerbaijani party. Armenian Defense Ministry told
ArmInfo, the situation in the contact-line of Armenian and Azerbaijai
Armed Forces is stable. ‘The situation is normal’, Armenian DM Press
Secretary Seyran Shakhsouvaryan said.
