U.S. looks forward to hosting another round of Armenia-Azerbaijan talks – State Dept
The United States looks forward to hosting another round of peace talks between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Washington, U.S. Department of State spokesperson Matthew Miller said on Tuesday.
The foreign ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan were supposed to meet in Washington this week, which was canceled at Baku’s behest.
“It was 100 percent due to scheduling issues. We look forward to hosting another round of talks in Washington as the parties continue to pursue a peaceful dialogue for the South Caucasus region,” Miller told a press brefing.
“As we’ve said before, we believe direct dialogue is key to resolving the remaining issues. We believe an agreement is within reach. This meeting unfortunately couldn’t go forward 100 percent due to scheduling issues, and we look forward to rescheduling it as soon as we can,” he added.
