    NATO concerned by escalation on the Armenian-Azeri front

    BAKU March 7


    The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is concerned by the
    escalation of the situation in the Nagorno- Karabakh conflict zone,
    said NATO Secretary General's special representative in South
    Caucasus Robert Simmons.

    We are very concerned by the recent breach of the cease-fire in the
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict zone, which has become a major incident in
    the region, Simmons told journalists at the 68th Rose-Roth seminar of
    the NATO Parliamentary Assembly in Baku.

    Hopefully, such incidents will not happen again and will not hurt the
    talks with the OSCE (Organization for Security and Cooperation in
    Europe) Minsk Group [of conflict mediators], he said.

    I will discuss this problem with both Azeri and Armenian leaders, he
    said.

    Regarding the escalation in the domestic situation in Armenia,
    Simmons said they are concerned and are watching events in the
    country very closely.
