Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu discussed regional issues, including the situation in the South Caucasus with the U.S. congressmen in Washington, Turkish Ihlas agency reported.
At the meeting views were exchanged on the processes associated with the revolutions in the Arab countries, Iran's nuclear program and Turkish-U.S. relations.
Turkish Foreign Minister started his visit to the United States on Feb.9. It is expected that Davutoglu will meet with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. - are currently holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
