Vedant Patel, Principal Deputy Spokesperson, on Wednesday, said, the U.S. was committed to Armenia‑Azerbaijan peace negotiations, “and we have encouraged both leaders to meet in whatever format is most useful to them.”

Patel noted that “direct dialogue is key to resolving these issues and reaching a lasting peace.”

“There is no greater supporter than the U.S. for the sovereignty and independence of the three countries in the South Caucasus, and the restoration of Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia’s independence in 1991 when the Soviet Union was a seminal event that guaranteed each of these countries the right to pursue their own foreign policy interests and sovereignty,” Vedant Patel said during Department of State press briefing.
