Azerbaijani parliamentarians Ganira Pashayeva and Zahid Oruj, who are visiting US, met with the representatives of the Department of State.
Oruj said that they held discussions with the Assistant Secretary of State at the bureau for European and Asian affairs and Ethan Goldrich, Director of the Office of Caucasus Affairs and Regional Conflicts of the U.S. Department of State.

Oruj added they updated the US officials on Azerbaijan’s position in the South Caucasus and spoke about the US-Azerbaijan relations.

“We also said that the recent aid of the US to the Nagorno Karabakh caused serious concerns in Azerbaijan. They said the note would be answered in a few days. It was noted that the US position on recognition of Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity remains unchanged," he said.

"It was also noted that the Azerbaijani community of Nagorno-Karabakh would be taken into consideration while offering aids in future. It was said that the Congress should continue work in this direction,” he said.
