United States Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken has welcomed the first joint meeting of the Armenia-Azerbaijan bilateral Border Commissions, which was held on the border between the two countries on May 24.

"The U.S. supports the EU-brokered conversations between Azerbaijan and Armenia and encourages continued positive momentum and bilateral dialogue in support of regional peace," Blinken said in a tweet.

The next meeting of the commissions of Armenia and Azerbaijan on the delimitation of the border will be held in early June in Moscow.
