Washington/Sputnik: US officials have spoken to Armenian and Azerbaijani leaders and urged them to cease hostilities in Nagorno-Karabakh, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in an interview.
"We’re urging a ceasefire. We want them both to back up. We’ve spoken to the leadership in each of the two countries, asking them to do just that," Pompeo told Fox News on Thursday.
Pompeo urged third party states to remove themselves from the conflict amid Armenia’s allegations that Turkey is involved in the hostilities in Nagorno-Karabakh.
