Mediating countries not to send peacekeepers to Garabagh

Baku, June 20, AssA-Irada

Peacekeeping forces will be stationed in the conflict zone after
Azerbaijan and Armenia reach an accord on settling the Upper Garabagh
conflict, officials said.

`It has been agreed that co-chairing countries [France, United States
and Russia] will not be included in these forces’, according to Deputy
Foreign Minister Araz Azimov.

Azimov said the agreement on the issue was reached a while ago and
Russia agreed to this proposal. `The precise make-up of peacekeepers
will be determined as results are achieved in peace talks’, he said.*
