“Under the President’s direction, we have spent the entire weekend trying to broker peace between Armenia & Azerbaijan. Armenia has accepted a ceasefire. Azerbaijan has not yet. We are pushing them [Azerbaijan] to do so,” said U.S. National Security Advisor Robert O'Brien on Face the Nation.

Armenian and Azerbaijani foreign ministers traveled to Washington on October 23 for a meeting with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and U.S. State Department officials.

Hostilities began between following an Azerbaijani offensive on the Armenians in Nagorno Karabakh on September 27.

After two failed Russian-brokered ceasefires, the U.S. State Department invited Armenian Foreign Minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan and Azerbaijani counterpart Jeyhun Bayramov to Washington in an attempt to end hostilities and begin negotiations.

"Our view remains, as does the view of nearly every European country, that the right path forward is to cease the conflict, tell them to de-escalate, that every country should stay out, provide no fuel for this conflict, no weapons systems, no support," said Pompeo.

U.S., Russia, and France are co-chairs of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe Minks Group, tasked with spearheading peace talks over Nagorno Karabakh.

Yesterday, the U.S. Embassy in Baku said it has received credible reports of potential terrorist attacks and kidnappings against U.S. citizens and foreign nationals in Baku, including against hotels such as the J.W. Marriott Absheron, as well as potentially other locations in Baku.
