US Ambassador Matthew Bryza has urged the Armenian and Azerbaijani presidents to take "difficult decisions" and bring peace to their peoples.
"There is no military solution to this conflict, but at the same time the status quo is inadmissible. Both parties should spare no effort to reach a final agreement," Matthew Bryza told journalists in Astara, on the second day of his visit to Azerbaijan's southern districts.
"It is the responsibility of the presidents to take difficult decisions and to bring the two communities together to agree on peace," he said, according to Gun.Az.
Bryza was optimistic that the Armenian and Azerbaijani presidents would be able to reach agreement in talks.
"I believe that the presidents of both countries can reach consensus on the basics of a framework agreement, because we can’t set aside the substantive issues,”APA reported the envoy as saying.
He said he was sure that through confidence-building measures the presidents would be able to create trust between themselves, and the two communities and peoples.
