The joint military exercises of the U.S. and Armenian troops are routine and are in no way tied to the tension between Yerevan and Baku, U.S. State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said during Monday’s Department press briefing.
According to Miller, the latest Armenian-U.S. joint military exercises is "a routine exercise that is in no way tied to any other events."
