YEREVAN. - U.S. tries to make it clear for Armenian and Azerbaijani
leaders that the Karabakh conflict cannot be settled through military
intervention, Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security
Affairs Alexander Vershbow said in the interview with Azerbaijani
agency 1news.az.
According to him, U.S. government supports the efforts by the
OSCE Minsk group, aimed at achieving a lasting settlement of
the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict through peaceful means based on the
Principles of the Helsinki Final Act with regard to the right of people
to self-determination, refrain from using force or threat of force,
as well as territorial integrity.
"MG Co-chairs continue to assist Armenia and Azerbaijan in
understanding that resuming the conflict will have catastrophic
results both for the two states and the whole region. We repeat once
again the statement by Presidents Obama, Medvedev and Sarkozy, which
was made on May 26, this year at the G-8 Summit. According to it,
settlement of the conflict through negotiations can lead to peace,
stability and reconciliation," Vershbow stated.
