The U.S. will intensify its activity in the OSCE Minsk Group and do its best to enhance the opportunities for the final resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, U.S. Ambassador to Azerbaijan Richard Morningstar told reporters in Baku on Friday, when commenting on the upcoming meeting of Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov, OSCE Minsk Group co-chairmen and Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian, in Vienna, Azerbaijani media reported.
While commenting on the incident with Moldovan ombudsman Aurelia Grigoriu after her speech in the Armenian Parliament, the ambassador said: "Taking into account my position, it would be better if I refrained from commenting," Morningstar said. "It would be better if the issue was resolved by Moldova, Armenia and Azerbaijan."
To recall, at an international conference in Yerevan, Moldovan Parliamentary Advocate Aurelia Grigoriu said that Armenia "had occupied 20% of Azerbaijan's territory and committed genocide against Azeri people". This statement caused a wide public response.
