U.S. Department of State responds to AZERTAC's inquiry

Washington, April 18, AZERTAC

The press service of the United States Department of State has issued a response to the inquiry from AZERTAC’s corresponding bureau in the U.S. regarding the photo of the document circulated in the media, which reflected the provision of extensive military support to Armenia during the U.S.-European Union-Armenia trilateral meeting held in Brussels on April 5.
“This document is pure disinformation – security issues were not on the agenda. We would direct you to the joint press release we put out along with the EU and Armenia following the April 5 trilateral meeting in Brussels.
The Brussels meeting with the EU and Armenia focused solely on Armenia’s economic resilience as it works to diversify its trade partnerships and address humanitarian needs, and support for Armenia’s ongoing reforms, including in areas such as democracy and rule of law,” the press service of the State Department stated in response to the inquiry.
A photo of one of the documents related to the U.S.-European Union-Armenia trilateral meeting held in Brussels was circulated in the media yesterday. As evident from the photo that has caused widespread concern in the Azerbaijani society, contrary to previous statements regarding the trilateral meeting, the document reflects extensive military support from both the United States and the European Union to Armenia. AZERTAC has addressed an inquiry to the U.S. Department of State regarding the issue.
