The US co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group mediators on Nagorno-Karabakh, Robert Bradtke, arrived in Azerbaijan today.
'I am very happy to back in Baku... I’ve come to have meeting with President Aliyev and Minister of Foreign Affairs Mammadyarov. As President Aliyev said, we are really at a decisive stage in the Nagorno-Karabakh peace process. And we need to re-establish the momentum, the momentum that has been lost over the last couple of months.
'So, I will be reassuring the president of our interest in relations with Azerbaijan, not only bilateral relations but also in the context of Nagorno-Karabakh and our commitment to progress. The US is ready to do what we can make progress in the peace process,' Bradtke told journalists at Heydar Aliyev International Airport.
The diplomat said he would say more after his meetings.
Robert Bradtke will discuss the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict negotiating process with Azerbaijani officials and the former and new Russian co-chairs, Yury Merzlyakov and Igor Popov.
The Russian diplomats arrived in Baku this morning, but the third co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, French diplomat Bernard Fassier, will not visit Azerbaijan this time.
