Azerbaijan is a very important state in the Caucasus, and the
United States attaches high importance to relations with it. The
USA understands Azerbaijan’s concern over the reopening of the
Armenian-Turkish border, U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Tina
Kaidanow stated in her interview with the Azerbaijani AND TV Channel.

According to her, the USA is supporting the process for permanent peace
to be established in the region. The United States attaches importance
not only to the Armenian-Turkish relations, but also the settlement
of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Evidence thereof is the appointment
of experienced diplomat Bob Bradtke as OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairman.
