During the past year, we supported a number of negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Secretary of State Blinken has personally participated in these efforts to try to reach a peace agreement that will pave the way for normalization of relations, opening of communications and trade throughout the region, which we believe is in the interests of all countries of the South Caucasus. This was announced by Michael Carpenter, the US ambassador to the OSCE.
He noted that Washington will continue its support for meetings between Armenia and Azerbaijan. “The USA will continue to offer its good services for holding meetings between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
Ultimately, of course, the parties themselves should utilize the services of ad bar or mediation offerings to assist in efforts to reach a settlement agreement,” Carpenter said.
The ambassador also referred to the possibility of the safe return of the occupied Artsakh Armenians, noting that they also support it.
