Not a single state, including the USA, recognizes the independence of Nagorno-Karabakh, AzerTAG cites the press-service of the US State Department.
Such is the US response to the local elections in Nagorno-Karabakh held on September 18. The elections should not become an obstacle to settling the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict.
Operating with the OSCE Minsk Group, the US is searching for peaceful means of reaching a solution, based on the Helsinki Principles.
