We want to see constructive dialogue put back on track between Armenia and Azerbaijan - Ned Price

Ned Price, US State Department Spokesperson referred to the latest developments in the peace process between Armenia and Azerbaijan during his regular press briefing. 
 
“We’re going to do what is ultimately most helpful. And at the end of last year, there were a couple of meetings that the Secretary chaired between his counterparts, a trilateral meeting between Armenia, and Azerbaijan, with Secretary Blinken in the middle. We did that at Blair House. We did that in New York. Of course, we’ve seen setbacks in Nagorno-Karabakh of late. We want to see constructive dialogue put back on track. We stand ready to engage bilaterally. We stand ready to engage with and through partners, through the OSCE or, if and when appropriate, trilaterally, as we have done in the past”, Price said.
 
He also referred to the retirement of ambassador Phillip Reeker. "Ambassador Reeker retired from the Department of State after an illustrious 30-year career just last week. But there are a number of individuals in this department who are deeply invested in this process, not the least of whom is Secretary Blinken himself. This is a personal priority of his. But people like Toria Nuland, people like Karen Donfried, people like a number of the senior officials in our Bureau of European and Eurasian affairs, will remain deeply engaged in this", Price concluded.
