US State Department: We would welcome role in facilitating Armenia-Azerbaijan talks

We continue to engage the leadership of Armenia and Azerbaijan and offer to facilitate a dignified and durable peace where the rights of all are respected, Matthew Miller, Spokesperson of the US State Department, said at a press briefing on Monday.

“It is important that Armenia and Azerbaijan discuss and resolve issues directly to benefit the region. We would welcome a role in facilitating those talks.

We’ve seen other countries offer to facilitate those talks. We think it’s important that the two countries talk face to face to reach a durable agreement,” he added.
