The Co-Chairs are aware that a so-called constitutional referendum is scheduled to take place in Nagorno-Karabakh on February 20, 2017. Although the Co-Chairs note that the de-facto Nagorno-Karabakh authorities view the use of such a procedure as an effort to organize the public life of their population, they underscore again that no countries, including Armenia and Azerbaijan, recognize Nagorno-Karabakh as an independent and sovereign state. Accordingly, the Co-Chairs do not accept the results of the referendum on February 20 as affecting the legal status of Nagorno-Karabakh.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We welcome today\u2019s simultaneous shipment of humanitarian goods along the Lachin corridor and the Aghdam roadway into Nagorno-Karabakh, an approach President Aliyev and I recently discussed. These deliveries of critically needed supplies are an important step forward, and we encourage the sides to engage in direct talks and focus on ways to increase the flow of humanitarian supplies to the population of the region. The United States remains committed to supporting efforts between Armenia and Azerbaijan to resolve long-standing issues and achieve a dignified and durable peace.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n \n

The United States is deeply\u00a0concerned\u00a0about the rapidly deteriorating\u00a0humanitarian situation in Nagorno-Karabakh. We note that humanitarian supplies are positioned near both the Lachin\u00a0and Aghdam\u00a0routes, and\u00a0we\u00a0repeat our\u00a0call for the immediate and simultaneous opening of both corridors to allow passage of desperately needed humanitarian supplies to the men, women, and children in\u00a0Nagorno-Karabakh.\u00a0We also urge leaders against taking any actions that\u00a0raise tensions or\u00a0distract from this goal.\u00a0The use of force to resolve disputes is unacceptable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n <\/div>\n \n
