We have consistently been clear that dialogue between
Armenia and Azerbaijan is essential to resolving this longstanding conflict.
Principal Deputy Spokesperson for the U.S. Department of State Vedant Patel
said this at his press briefing.
As Patel said, they take note that President Aliyev will not
participate in the proposed meeting in Granada.
“We continue to believe that dialogue between Armenia and
Azerbaijan continues to be incredibly important to finding a dignified and
durable peace for the South Caucasus. It’s why the Secretary has engaged
on this so personally, continuing to speak with counterparts and interlocutors
in both countries,” Patel said.
