    So as usual and as expected: AZ did not commit itself to any map, not even a sequence in which the border should be delimited.

    Good for them, bad for us.

  2. I will wait for more details since this conflicts with what /u/ar_david_hh wrote in his news post yesterday:

    > government publishes the text of the Regulation signed between the border commissions of Armenia and Azerbaijan

    > • based on the 1991 Almaty Declaration

    > • boring details about holding meetings

    > • they will use maps, cadastre documents, satellite and aerial imagery, and other materials during the delimitation

    > … they will “optimize” the border line in some locations to:

    > • reduce the delimitation’s negative impact on border villages

    > • improve border residents’ safety and access to pasture

    > • avoid problems with roads, engineering structures, and access to natural resources

    > • allow access to cemeteries and cultural sites

    > • make curvy lines straight where needed

    > • pass the border through a terrain that relies more on nature [gorge, river, etc.]

    > … the maps

    > 1991 Almaty maps with a 1:25000 scale. They will be 1:10000 or more detailed in some regions.
