Yerevan, 19 July: The USA is making every effort to help resolve
the Nagornyy Karabakh problem and is calling on the sides to "move
towards a long-term resolution" of the conflict, US ambassador in
Yerevan John Evans has told Interfax.
"The USA supports the OSCE Minsk Group's efforts to resolve the
Nagornyy Karabakh conflict and urges all the sides to move towards
a long-term resolution of the conflict," the US diplomat said.
Evans said "the international community is not going to force any kind
of resolution on the sides, but it is ready to support agreement they
will reach".
[Passage omitted: Evans says US-Armenian relations are improving in
all spheres]
He said "the USA does not think that Armenia's friendly relations
with Russia are inconsistent with it's relations with the USA".
"We hope that Armenia, Russia, the USA and other countries will jointly
contribute to peace, stability and prosperity in the South Caucasus,"
Evans added.
