BAKU: Section 907 to be repealed after Garabagh conflict is settled

Section 907 to be repealed after Garabagh conflict is settled

Assa-Irada, Azerbaijan

The US Department of State will fully repeal the Section 907 it
passed on Azerbaijan after the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over Upper
Garabagh is settled, the US Ambassador to Azerbaijan Reno Harnish
told journalists on Wednesday.

Harnish said that the execution of Section 907 has been regularly
suspended by the US President every year since January 2002, which is
certainly based on Azerbaijan’s efforts at fighting global terrorism.

“The US is very pleased that meetings between the Azerbaijani and
Armenian foreign ministers on settling the Upper Garabagh conflict
continue and that further steps will be taken in this area in January.”
Harnish voiced a hope that such meetings will lead to a fair, long-term
resolution of the conflict through negotiations.*
