"The decision provides a positive co-operative response to the willingness of the Government of Azerbaijan to make further progress in this regard."
The mandate of the Project Co-ordinator in Baku will enter into force on 1 January 2014. The Project Co-ordinator will build on the valuable work done by the OSCE Office in Baku.
