BAKU, Azerbaijan — A senior aide to Azeri President Ilham Aliyev has
accused the United States of siding with Armenia in the conflict over
Nagorno-Karabakh and threatened that Azerbaijan would "reconsider"
its relationship with the United States.
"The United States does not implement policy toward Azerbaijan
as a strategic partner, and that’s why we might reconsider our
policy towards the United States," Ali Hasanov, Aliyev’s head of
public-political issues, said in an interview Friday.
