The United States is not trying to compete with Russia in helping Azerbaijan and Armenia in the peace process, U.S. State Department Spokesperson Ned Price said.

He said that the U.S. is not going to put themselves against any other offer of mediation, stressing that in fact they’re not a mediator, they are a partner to the two countries. 

"I think we have demonstrated both in word and in deed the nature of our relationship with the two countries, our ability to bring the two countries together, our willingness and readiness to help bring about additional progress in relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan," Price believes.

Price noted, this is not done to compete with Moscow, but to "bring about the settlement and resolution of a longstanding dispute between these two countries.

"Our interest here is in peace and security. It’s in the interests of the people of Armenia and Azerbaijan as well," the spokesperson concluded.
