Matthew Bryza should be re-nominated by the U.S. President Barack Obama as ambassador to Azerbaijan so that the Senate was able to again consider his candidacy, Senator Frank R. Lautenberg said in his response to the question of Pax Turcica (Research Center, established by Azerbaijani and Turkish Diasporas).

"I view my constitutional responsibility to both advise and consent regarding the President's nominations as one of my most important duties. I evaluate each presidential nominee to ensure he or she has the experience and intellectual capacity for the position and will responsibly fulfill their duties," Lautenberg said in his response to the question regarding Bryza, Azerbaijani-American Council said.

U.S. President Barack Obama appointed a career diplomat, former U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary Matthew Bryza as ambassador to Azerbaijan bypass the Senate on Dec.29, 2010, which a few months blocked his nomination under pressure of pro-Armenian senators Barbara Boxer and Robert Menendez.

In late December Bryza ended his mission in Azerbaijan and left for the U.S.
