As delivered by Deputy Political Counselor Lewis Gitter
to the Permanent Council, Vienna
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
The United States welcomes Azerbaijan’s release of Armenian detainees. Efforts to facilitate the return of all remaining detainees and fully account for missing persons, including from the 1990s, are critical to lasting peace in the region.
The United States remains committed to promoting a secure, stable, democratic, prosperous, and peaceful future for the South Caucasus region.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
