US clarifies financial aid to Nagorno-Karabakh
The US does not recognize the independence of Nagorno-Karabakh, Coordinator of US Assistance to Europe and Eurasia of the US Department of State Alina Romanowski told reporters in Baku.

The status of Nagorno-Karabakh is the subject of international negotiations and the OSCE Minsk Group, the US official said.

Assistance provided by the US Department of State to Nagorno-Karabakh is made solely for the purpose of clearance of the territory from mines, and will be continued until these lands are not completely cleared of mines, she added.

In this regard, the United States is negotiating with independent companies and not with the de facto authorities of Nagorno-Karabakh, Romanowski said.
