Sources said that it would take time for the soldiers to withdraw from the disputed areas, although it can be seen that this process has already started. They said that preparations for disengagement began after this understanding. The very next day a meeting of local commanders was also held. Sources said that withdrawing the soldiers does not mean they have accepted defeat, although patrolling will start after the temporary structures blocking the way are removed. For this, the commitment of both countries towards the agreement is also necessary.
