PanARMENIAN.Net - The United States continues to believe that peace is possible in the South Caucasus, Principal Deputy Spokesperson for the U.S. Department of State Vedant Patel told a briefing in Tuesday, April 30.

Patel’s remarks came one day after Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken spoke with the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan over the weekend.

Patel said it should come to no surprise that this is an area of the world that the Secretary himself is “personally deeply engaged on”.

“And over the course of his time as Secretary, he has had regular engagements at regular intervals with both of these countries,” Patel added.

“And our engagements with both of them are ongoing, and we continue to believe that a peace and – is possible here. And that’s something that we’re going to continue to work towards.”
