According to the ambassador, the aid provided to Azerbaijan has now reached $115 million.
“As for the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, I would like to say that the existence of the conflict is indeed a deplorable fact. And the aid is an allowance meant merely for people suffering from the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict,” the ambassador said.
US activity on the conflict has two directions, the diplomat noted. “One is about delivering aid to people suffering from this conflict. And the other is the direction in which James Warlick, the US Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, is working. He is working a lot in this direction, trying to bring together the two governments within the OSCE Minsk Group in a bid to organize negotiations on a peaceful solution to the conflict.”
Asked by a correspondent what criteria are taken into account when allocating financial aid and why this aid are directed to Nagorno-Karabakh only while there are so many conflict zones worldwide badly in need of support, the ambassador said “In this regard, we approach issues in an individual style. We’re providing assistance Georgia, too. We just have a different approach. We likewise continue providing aid to Moldova, African, and Ukraine”.
