U.S. diplomat

MOSCOW Sept 12

The proper time has come to resolve the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict,
U.S. Ambassador to Azerbaijan Anne Derse said.

The U.S. notes that the conflict should be resolved by peaceful means
only on the basis of the principle of Azerbaijan’s territorial
integrity, Derse told journalists in Baku on Friday.

At this stage, the U.S. is resolved and able to continue its activity
and advocate peaceful resolution of the problem, the ambassador said.

The diplomat also expressed hope that the OSCE Minsk Group will be
able to continue working in the same format.
