NKR MFA expressed concern over setting fires in borderline areas by Azeri side

PanARMENIAN.Net - On June 27 the NKR Ministry of Foreign Affairs delivered a note to Ambassador Andrzej Kasprzyk, Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office, expressing concern over numerous cases of fires from Azerbaijani side across the line of contact between the armed forces of NKR and Azerbaijan.



Taking into account the detrimental impact on republic's economy and environment, as well as threat to human health and security, caused by fires in summer of 2006, the NKR MFA urged the Office of the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office to conduct a crisis monitoring of the borderline area.



The NKR Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed hope that timely interference by the Office of Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office will allow to avoid the repetition of the summer 2006 situation, which in particular, Azeri authorities used for propaganda and which became an additional factor to destabilizing the peace process, the NKR MFA Press Office reports.
