We know that process of peace is not easy. And I know that the conflict has caused great hardship and suffering on all sides for far too many years. However, I believe that there is also hope, hope for a peaceful future, hope that momentum will sustain in these peace negotiations and that a new chapter of history can be made for a brighter future for all. I’ve seen real steps, courageous steps by both countries, who can make a future and adorable peace.

Secretary Blinken said both countries are working toward a brighter, more prosperous future for the South Caucasus. The US supports direct dialogue between Armenia and Azerbaijan and urges this momentum to continue into the new year. Real progress has been made, and peace brings the promise of a better, brighter future. I recognize the courage, determination and leadership necessary to reach that destination,” Reeker stated.
