Tangible progress achieved in negotiations between FMs of Azerbaijan, Armenia - Blinken

BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 4. Tangible progress has been achieved in the negotiations between the Foreign Ministers of Azerbaijan and Armenia, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said, following the meeting with Minister of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan Jeyhun Bayramov and his Armenian counterpart Ararat Mirzoyan, Trend reports.

"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. 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 interests of the people of Azerbaijan and Armenia, and would have very positive effects even beyond their two countries," he said.

On May 1, the US hosted a trilateral meeting between Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov, Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken. After that, a bilateral meeting of the foreign ministers of the two countries was held at the George Shultz National Foreign Affairs Training Center in Arlington, Virginia. Negotiations continued on May 2 and 3 in a bilateral format. The final round of negotiations took place on May 4.
