The United States welcomes the cessation of hostilities between Azerbaijan and Armenia, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said.
"We welcome the cessation of hostilities between Azerbaijan and Armenia and will continue to work with the parties to seek to cement it. The United States remains committed to promoting a peaceful and prosperous future for the South Caucasus region" he wrote.
According to U.S. Department of State Spokesperson Ned Price, Blinken expects to hold contacts with the Azerbaijani Armenian leaders, Ilham Aliyev and Nikol Pashinyan, on the situation in the region once again.
"The Secretary has had an opportunity a couple days ago now to speak to both leaders. I would expect that he will have an opportunity to speak to the leaders again," he said.
