US State Department stresses Armenia-Azerbaijan settlement’s importance for Washington
The current US administration will continue to work towards the regulation of Armenian-Azerbaijani relations till its last day in office. Vedant Patel, Principal Deputy Spokesperson of the US Department of State, noted about this at Thursday’s Department press briefing—and in response to the question whether Washington is frustrated that the US efforts have not led to the normalization of Armenian-Azerbaijani relations.
"We try not to focus on frustrations and just continuing to do the work. Secretary Blinken has long said, in a lot of areas, that it’s the so many days of just hard work until the — something comes to fruition. I probably really butchered that quote, so you’ll forgive me. But this continues to be an area of vital importance to this administration and to the Secretary, and we’ll continue to work at it till our last day in office,” Patel said.
