The United States has urged the parties to the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict to remain committed to a peaceful resolution of the
long-running dispute.

“As a Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, the United States remains
firmly committed to assisting the sides in the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict reach a lasting and peaceful settlement. There is no military
solution to this conflict,” Spokesperson for the US Department of
State Victoria Nuland told a daily briefing in Washington.

“We urge the sides to prepare their populations for peace, not war,
and to refrain from any provocative rhetoric or actions on the ground,”
she added.
