The OSCE chairman’s special envoy Anzhei Kaspshik is expected to leave
for Yerevan on Friday. During the visit, Kaspshik will extensively
discuss with Armenian officials ways of eliminating the tensions
caused by the persistent ceasefire violations on the contact line of
Azerbaijani and Armenian troops. Kaspshik recalled the commitments on
ceasefire assumed by the conflicting sides according to the Bishkek
protocol, saying that regular ceasefire breaches are unacceptable. He
voiced his concerns over the frequent ceasefire violations, considering
the intensifying peace talks. The OSCE chairman’s envoy added that
he had notified the OSCE Vienna office of the problem.
Armenia has frequently violated ceasefire on the frontline over the
last 20 days.*
