U.S. supports continued dialogue between Armenia, Azerbaijan

The United States supports continued dialogue between Armenia and Azerbaijan, U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller has said.

"So we are concerned by the reports of deadly military-to-military clashes which resulted in several casualties. We offer our heartfelt condolences to the families of those killed and injured. The use of force undermines negotiations. The only way to a sustainable peace is at the negotiating table. Any ceasefire violations should be investigated and properly addressed. As the Secretary continually emphasizes, the United States is committed to Armenia-Azerbaijan peace negotiations."
