YEREVAN
The OSCE held regular monitoring on the contact line between the Armenian and Azerbaijani armed forces in the Tavush (Armenia)-Qazax (Azerbaijan) sector yesterday, the press secretary of the Armenian Defence Ministry, Col Seyran Shakhsuvaryan, has told Arminfo new agency.
The field assistants to the personal representative of the OSCE chairman-in-office, Imre Palatinus (Hungary), Olexandr Samarski (Ukraine) and Piter Key (Britain), took part in the monitoring on the Armenian side.
According to the source, radio monitoring, during which OSCE means of communications were used to establish contact with OSCE representatives taking part in the monitoring on the Azerbaijani side, was held at the beginning. As a result of this, the commanders of the two sides' military units gave security guarantees to the participants in the monitoring.
The monitoring was preceded by a short briefing in which the governor of Tavush Region, Armen Gularyan, noted frequent attacks on the Idzhevan-Noyemberyan road from the Azerbaijani side.
Asked by Palatinus about the reasons for this, the governor said that either the Azerbaijani side is not capable of controlling its own armed forces or this is the result of belligerent statements made by the Azerbaijani authorities.
