The UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is deeply disturbed by the recent reports of large-scale ceasefire violations along the Line of Contact in the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict zone, says the statement issued by his spokesman.
“He is particularly concerned by the reported use of heavy weapons and by the large numbers of casualties, including among the civilian population,” the statement reads.
“The Secretary-General urges all relevant parties to put an immediate end to the fighting, fully respect the ceasefire agreement and take urgent steps to de-escalate the situation.
The Secretary-General reiterates his full support for the efforts of the OSCE Minsk Group and all parties working to resolve this dangerous situation and pursue a peaceful negotiated settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.”
