We have consistently stressed this need to open routes in
\nNagorno-Karabakh and for a dialogue between the parties. Spokesperson for the
\nU.S. Department of State Matthew Miller made a statement on this.<\/p>\n
<\/p><\/p>\n
He noted that while it is important that Nagorno-Karabakh
\nhave credible representatives for this process, the U.S. does not recognize
\nNagorno-Karabakh as an independent and sovereign state, and therefore they do
\nnot recognize the results of the presidential elections.<\/p>\n
<\/p><\/p>\n
“So I will say that the United States will continue to
\nstrongly support efforts by Armenia and Azerbaijan to resolve outstanding
\nissues through direct dialogue, and that’s why Secretary Blinken and Senior
\nAdvisor for Caucasus Negotiations Lou Bono have been consistently engaged, and
\nwe will stay consistently engaged on this question,” he said.<\/p>\n
Referring to the Armenia-U.S. joint military drills, Miller
\nnoted that the exercise has nothing to do with a potential Azerbaijani attack.<\/p>\n
“We routinely train and operate alongside our partners to
\nmaintain readiness, and we continuously improve on the interoperability between
\nour armed forces. Armenia is a longstanding partner to the United States
\nand has an enduring relationship since 2003 with the Kansas National Guard as
\npart of the Department of Defense’s State Partnership Program. So no,
\nthis is a routine exercise that is in no way tied to any other events,” he
\nsaid.<\/p>\n
