On the night of 15-16, 2008, a detachment of special assignment of
the Azerbaijani Armed Forces made an attempt to penetrate into the
rear of the NKR Defense Army in the south-eastern direction of the
positions of the NKR Armed Forces, thus having grossly violated the
requirements of the ceasefire regime.
As a result of the measures taken by the servicemen of the NKR Defense
Army, being on duty, the group was hurled back to the initial position,
thus incurring losses in manpower (leaving a corpse of one of the
killed near the front line position of the NKR Defense Army).
In the morning of November 16, 2008, the NKR Ministry of Foreign
Affairs without delay notified the OSCE MG Co-Chairs and Personal
Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-office of the incident. The
Ministry suggested to conduct immediately a crisis-monitoring in the
given section of the contact line of the NKR and Azeri Armed Forces.
The Ministry points out the fact that the attempt of the breakthrough
was made by the Azerbaijani side during the OSCE MG Co-chairs visit to
the Nagorno Karabakh Republic, as well as after the Moscow Declaration
signed recently by Russian, Armenian and Azerbaijani presidents,
in which, particularly, the readiness of the sides to contribute to
the establishment of an atmosphere of stability and security in the
region 0D via political settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
is mentioned.
Noting that this is not the first sally of the subversive groups
of the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan to the front lines of the Armed
Forces of the NKR for this year, the Ministry reminds that the NKR
leadership has repeatedly directed the mediators' attention to the
necessity of taking immediate measures by the international community
on strengthening the ceasefire regime in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
zone and ensuring the irreversibility of peace.
Taking into consideration the official Baku's destructive steps,
which, unfortunately, have not received proper political assessment
by international mediators, the Ministry places the responsibility
for the possible escalation of tension on the contact line entirely
upon the leadership of Azerbaijan.
An appropriate note reflecting the NKR authorities' official viewpoint
on the given issue has been sent to the OSCE Chairman-in-office and
Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in- Office.
