    DEPARTMENT OF STATE: MARIE HARF DEPUTY SPOKESPERSON DAILY PRESS
    BRIEFING SEPTEMBER 20, 2013

    The following information was released by the U.S. Department of State:

    QUESTION: In an exclusive interview with Liberty Service Radio
    Libertys Armenian Service, the U.S. Ambassador to Armenia John Heffern
    made some statement contradictory to the U.S. officially stated
    policy, particularly in terms of U.S. assistance to the victims of
    Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. But I think it was a day later that the
    Embassy issued a clarification that U.S. does not provide any
    assistance to the unrecognized regime in Azerbaijans occupied
    territories. Can you please explain the statements by John Heffern and
    elaborate on the stance of U.S. Government versus territorial
    integrity of Azerbaijan?

    havent seen those statements or any of that exchange. Im happy to look

    MS. HARF: I just havent seen it. Im sorry. I will look into it. Ill
