“The Nagorno Karabakh conflict can and should be solved. Reaching
peace agreement is the only way to settle the conflict.
“We have introduced to both presidents our opinions how to improve
the peace process,” said US Assistant Secretary of State for European
and Eurasian Affairs Daniel Fried.
He said reaching an agreement on the solution of the conflict depends
on Azerbaijani and Armenian Presidents, APA reports.
“The co-chairs offered a number of ideas to solve the conflict. We
have offered these ideas to the leaders as a neutral side, without
defending interests of any of them. However, as US representative,
I wish that Azerbaijan can restore as more of its lands as possible
and refugees come back to their native lands soon. Both parties to
the conflict have certain interests. There are different options
of solution, we offered the optimal one. Everything depends on the
Presidents now. I believe both Presidents are quite serious persons.
They are analyzing the ideas we offered. We do not mean to exert
pressure on them, as a friend, we intend to help both parties,”
Mr.Fried said.
