Line of Contact
10:19 * 02.08.14
The United States has expressed its concern over the escalation of
violence along the Line of Contact that resulted in significant
casualties on Thursday.
In a statement, the Department of State, extended its condolences to
the families of those killed or injured and called on the Armenian and
Azerbaijani sides to take immediate action to reduce tensions and
respect the ceasefire.
"There can be no military solution to the conflict. Retaliation and
further violence will only make it more difficult to bring about a
peaceful settlement.
The United States urges the Presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan to
meet at the earliest opportunity to resume dialogue on key issues. We
also call on the parties to accept the proposal from the Organization
for Security and Cooperation in Europe Chairman-in-Office to enter
into negotiations which can lead to the conclusion of a peace
agreement. We remain committed to participating in the Minsk Group
process and stand ready to help efforts to bring about a lasting
settlement," reads the statement.
