No incident recorded during OSCE monitoring on contact line

An OSCE monitoring was held without incidents on the contact line of Azerbaijani and Armenian troops near the Kohanebi village of Azerbaijan’s Tovuz district under the mandate of the OSCE chairperson-in-office personal representative on April 1.

Azerbaijan’s Defense Ministry reported that on the Azerbaijani side, the monitoring was conducted by the field assistants of the personal representative of the OSCE chairperson-in-office, Yevgeny Sharov and Peter Svedberg.

On the Armenian side of the contact line, the monitoring was conducted by the field assistants of the OSCE chairperson-in-office personal representative, Irzhi Aberle, Hristo Hristov and Simon Tiller.

The Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent regions of Azerbaijan are currently under Armenia's occupation following a sudden and insidious aggression by this smallest South Caucasus country in early 1990s. While Yerevan continues to justify the occupation of 20 percent of Azerbaijan's territory by backing the separatist puppet regime in Nagorno-Karabakh, Baku and international organizations have worked hard to end the conflict in peace

The two countries signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia, France and the US are currently holding peace negotiations. Armenia has not yet implemented the UN Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
