Azerbaijani prisoners Dilgam Askerov and Shahbaz Guliyev, held by
Armenia, should be returned, the US Assistant Secretary of State
for European and Eurasian Affairs, Victoria Nuland, said at a press
conference in Baku today.
She said this should be done as a humanitarian gesture. “I will make
that point as well in Yerevan tomorrow,” Trend cited Nuland as saying.
Nuland also voiced US concern over the escalation of violence on
the contact line between Armenian and Azerbaijani troops. “We want
to see an end to violence, we want the parties to come back to the
negotiating table. We want to support this process,” she stressed.
