BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 15. I reject the premise that peace between Azerbaijan and Armenia is unattainable, said US Ambassador to Azerbaijan Mark Libby during today's press conference, Trend reports.
''I totally accept that Azerbaijanis and Armenians can live together. If I didn’t accept that I wouldn’t be hopeful that a peace deal was possible. In the same fashion the agreement that we saw in December on the exchange of prisoners and Armenia’s support for Azerbaijan’s COP presidency – that’s a proof of concept that the two countries can do a deal. I certainly accept the premise that there is no reason to think that Azerbaijanis and Armenians can’t live together in harmony as neighbors, as trading partners. I reject the premise that peace is impossible. It is difficult and getting over that can be hard,'' he noted.
