BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 31. The US is ready to
support the efforts of Azerbaijan and Armenia to conclude a durable
peace agreement, State Department Spokesman Matthew Miller said in
a statement, Trend
reports.

“Armenia and Azerbaijan’s leaders will meet later this week in
Chisinau with our European partners, and we hope that will be a
productive step to resolving these issues at the negotiating table
and not through violence,” he said.

Miller noted with appreciation the continued talks between
Azerbaijan and Armenia on the peace process.

“Aggressive rhetoric can only perpetuate the violence of the
past; constructive dialogue—both public and private—can create
peace, opportunity, and hope,” he added.
