OSCE to hold monitoring on contact line of troops

The OSCE mission will hold a monitoring on the contact line of troops of Azerbaijan`s Tartar region on January 24 in accordance with the mandate of the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office.

According to the press service of Azerbaijan`s Defense Ministry, the monitoring will be held on the Azerbaijani side by field assistants of Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office Hristo Hristov, Peter Svedberg and Simon Tiller.

On the Azerbaijani territories occupied by Armenian troops, the monitoring will be conducted by field assistants of Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office Ghenadie Petrica and Jiri Aberle.

Azerbaijan and Armenia for over two decades have been locked in conflict, which emerged over Armenian territorial claims. Since the 1990s war, Armenian armed forces have occupied over 20 percent of Azerbaijan's internationally recognized territory, including Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent regions. The UN Security Council has adopted four resolutions on Armenian withdrawal, but they have not been enforced to this day.
