‘Agreement within sight’ in Armenia-Azerbaijan talks: Blinken
Washington, United States (AFP):
Negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan in Washington have made “tangible progress” and an agreement on resolving tensions is within reach, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Thursday.
“The two sides have discussed some very tough issues over the last few days, and they’ve made tangible progress on a durable peace agreement,” Blinken said at the conclusion of the four days of talks.
“I hope that they see and I believe that they do, as I do, that there is an agreement within sight, within reach and achieving that agreement would be I think not only historic but would be profoundly in the interest of the people of Azerbaijan and Armenia.
“I think the pace of the negotiations and the foundations that our colleagues have built shows that we really are within reach of an agreement. The last mile of any marathon is always the hardest, we know that, but the United States is here to continue to help both of our friends cross the finish line and as I say I think that we’re very much within reach of that.”
