The United States—as an OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chair—remains committed to engaging toward a lasting political settlement to the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, and is certain that only a comprehensive resolution can normalize the relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan, the US Embassy in Armenia told Armenpress on Tuesday.
The Embassy was responding to Azerbaijan’s foreign ministry, whose spokesperson Leyla Abdullayeva said on Sunday that U.S. Ambassador to Armenia Lynne Tracy saying that the status of Karabakh has not yet been determined was “unacceptable.”
“We don’t consider the status of Nagorno Karabakh resolved. And we will continue to keep that on the agenda of the [OSCE] Minsk Group,” Tracy said Saturday during a ceremony in Yerevan marking the 20th anniversary of the September 11 attacks.
Abdullayeva said that Tracy’s remarks “undermines the future activities of the Minsk Group.”
Yet it has been Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev who, at every opportunity, has called the OSCE Minks Group’s effort “ineffective,” telling CNN Turk last month that because the Group’s efforts were not yielding results, Azerbaijan resorted to restoring the situation through the 44-Day War.
In its response to Armenpress on Tuesday, the U.S. Embassy statement urged “Armenia and Azerbaijan to return as soon as possible to substantive discussions under the auspices of the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs to achieve this goal. Only a comprehensive resolution that addresses all outstanding issues can normalize relations between the two countries and allow the people of the region to live together peacefully.”
Azerbaijan must first answer for its terrorist actions in front of the world tribunal. Specifically, starting unprovoked and cowardly attack on civilians. Killing thousands by using illegal and prohibited weapons of mass destruction, such as cluster bombs, chemical weapons, such as white phosphorous, among others. Also, using ISIS terrorists and mercenaries from Syria brokered by the genocidal turkey and its terrorist leader erdogan. Only after azerbaijan comes to terms for committing these heinous crimes against it’s own population (remember, aliyev says artsakh is azerbaijan) (sic) they should be allowed to sit at the same table as the Minsk Group and discuss the recognition of Artsakh as a separate republic as it was declared over 30 years ago. Thereafter, discussions about the reparations should begin.
it’s true that he killed the original civilians 1915 There were no dashnak Armenians trying to destroy the civilian Muslims in Anatolia. In 1992, it was the aliens who killed the babies who made a genocide in Karabğ, the fascist fascist dogs.

First of all, dog is your filthy criminal tribe you Vətənsız Tatar Moğol köpeği. You are another brainwashed azerbarani idiot out of touch with reality. The reason a criminal MAFIA gang like Aliyev family is still in power, and has been so nearly for the last 60 years since the 1960s, in your artificial azerbarani state, a gas station disguised as a country, is because of mentally-handicapped sheep like you. First was the late and former KGB agent Heyder Aliyev who ordered your FAKE “historians” to rewrite history and LIE about the Armenians because the justification for your illegal existence on ancient and occupied Armenian homeland depended on falsification of history and the denigration of the ancient Armenian nation. Then came his son, Ilham Aliyev, that FAKE “patriot”, who at the ripe military age of 27-29 was hiding in Moscow during the 1990s Armenian Liberation War instead of putting on his FAKE uniform, like he loves to do for show these days, and go to the front line and fight. These hate-filled anti-Armenian criminals stay in power by exploiting illiterate peasants like you through injecting that poisonous anti-Armenian drug in you at a very early age and keep feeding you fabricated nonsense and promote hatred towards our nation so as to divert the attention of your primitive minds from their criminal activities onto their manufactured Armenian “enemy” or “düşmən” as you love to call the Armenians.
Zombies like you should have no right to express their opinion because you don’t know the facts. You only know what propaganda and made-up horse manure your terrorist leaders feed you. You are unable to think for yourselves for if you did you would soon realize your true enemy are those who, and their families, own over three-quarters of the wealth of your artificial state of 102 years WHILE you live on minimum wage. Those acts you refer to were the works of the pro-Turkish, pan-Turkic and Islamo-fascist terrorist Azerbarani Popular Front criminals using civilians as human shields in order to achieve their political goals of the time which was taking power by overthrowing the first post-Soviet and pro-Russian Azerbarani president Ayaz Mutalibov by discrediting him and then blaming their own criminal acts on the Armenians. The likes of you are dime a dozen. When it comes to the Armenians you have no respect for facts. You are the most despicable LIARs I have even known!
