Washington committed to peace talks between Baku, Yerevan - spokesman

    POLITICS  27 January 2023 - 10:13

    US State Department Principal Deputy Spokesperson Vedant Patel has said that Washington is committed to peace talks between Baku and Yerevan.

    He made the remarks at a press briefing held on January 26, Caliber.Az reports, citing the US State Department website.

    "First, the US is committed to Armenia‑Azerbaijan peace negotiations. We welcome efforts by partners, including the European Union, to build confidence in the region and to ensure an environment conducive to direct dialogue between Armenia and Azerbaijan. We continue to work closely with all our partners directly and with partners in the region as well when effective," he said.

    Speaking about Russia's role, he noted that the "US was not involved in the November 20 ceasefire brokered by Russia between Armenia and Azerbaijan that resulted in the deployment of Russian peacekeepers so I just wouldn’t have anything additional to offer on that. But of course,... this is something that is deeply important to the Secretary, [Anthony Blinken] something he's paid – played close attention to and been deeply engaged on".
