When the [US] Secretary [of State] has communicated with the leaders of both Armenia and Azerbaijan, he has made clear that there needs to be dialogue between the two parties. We are happy to play whatever we—role we can to facilitate that dialogue and will continue to do so, but I don’t want to preview any specific upcoming meetings," added the US State Department spox.
