The OSCE mission will hold a monitoring on the state border of Azerbaijan and Armenia on February 16 in accordance with the mandate of the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office, Azertac reported.

Azerbaijan`s Defense Ministry reported that the monitoring will be held on the Azerbaijani side by field assistants of Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office Ghenadie Petrica and Peter Svedberg .

On the Armenian side, the monitoring will be conducted by field assistants of Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office Jiri Aberle and Hristo Hristov.

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.
