U.S. denies Russia's accusations of 'geopolitical ambitions' in South Caucasus
Washington’s only goal is to ensure lasting peace and stability between Armenia and Azerbaijan, U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said on Tuesday, rejecting Russia’s allegations that the United States has “geopolitical ambitions” in the South Caucasus.
In an article published on Tuesday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov accused the U.S. of interfering into South Caucasus issues, including Nagorno-Karabakh, for its “geopolitical ambitions” and destabilizing the situation.
“Well, that’s absolutely not true,” Miller told a press briefing. “Our only goal in the South Caucasus, in the relationship between Armenia and Azerbaijan, is to ensure a lasting peace and stability and of course to ensure that the humanitarian needs and rights of the people of Nagorno-Karabakh are protected.”
