    US Government "examine the possible operations on drawing feasibility
    study for Trans-Caspian pipeline" and are going to promote
    Azeri-Kazakh intergovernmental agreement on transportation of Kazakh
    oil though Azerbaijan, reportedly said Anne Derse, nominated by
    President George W Bush to the post of US Ambassador to Azerbaijan.

    Diplomat said development of Caspian resources and their supply to
    the world's markets is one of the priority-driven issues of US
    Government in the region.

    Speaking of prospects of relieving matters around Nagorno-Karabakh,
    Ms Derse said Washington hoped for mutual agreement between
    Presidents Aliyev and Kocharyan in the shortest time. "We are
    currently observing a significant stage of conversations, - US
    official said. - This year, a window opens for achieving some
    agreement through conversations... It would be a tragedy to return to
    violence".

    Ms Derse said, quoting, "US relations with Azerbaijan have a
    promising future but will only reach their full potential if
    Azerbaijan strengthens its commitment to democracy and the rule of
    law". "Azerbaijan is an important partner to the US in a
    strategically significant region that grows even more important in a
    view of our political and economic interests", - Ms Derse, said,
    ITAR-TASS reports.
