U.S. Makes Every Effort for Peaceful Settlement of Karabakh Conflict

The U.S. is a Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group and makes every effort for peaceful settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, U.S. Ambassador to Armenia John Evans stated in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net. The head of the U.S. diplomatic mission referred to the words of U.S. Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group Ambassador Steven Mann, who addressed this issue when he said, the way peace is best served is by taking that first step towards an agreement in 2006. “I think this is our year, and these are the months, to take that first important step,” Mann said. “And I am absolutely convinced that in the months ahead the two sides have the chance to greatly lower the dangers of a new war,” the U.S. Co-Chair said.
