Director of the U.S. National Intelligence Dennis Blair addressed
the annual meeting "Annual Threat Assessment of the US Intelligence
Community for the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence" on Feb. 2.
Blair’s report also focused on the unresolved conflicts in the Caucasus
among others.
According to the U.S. National Intelligence official Web site,
in his report Blair mentioned the unresolved Armenian-Azerbaijani
conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, noting that "Although there has been
progress in the past year towards Turkey-Armenia rapprochement, this
has affected the delicate relationship between Armenia and Azerbaijan,
and increases the risk of a renewed conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh."
