The U.S. says it is too early to discuss details of any documents that may emerge from an upcoming Azerbaijan-U.S.-Armenia meeting.
The U.S. State Department’s First Deputy Spokesperson, Tommy Pigott, addressed reports at Thursday’s briefing suggesting that the upcoming trilateral meeting in Washington between the leaders of Azerbaijan, the United States, and Armenia could result in several signed documents, including one concerning the corridor connecting Azerbaijan to Nakhchivan.
In response to questions from journalists, Pigott said there is currently no concrete information available and advised that detailed enquiries be directed to the White House.
He added that both the U.S. President and Secretary of State have consistently expressed hope that an agreement between the parties may be reached in the near future. He underscored that when there is something ready for official announcement, it will be made public - but for now, it remains too early for specifics.
“When we have something to officially announce, we will announce it. As for the details and what it might look like, at this stage, I will not speculate or get ahead of any possible statements,” Pigott said.
