PRESIDENTS' STATEMENT ON KARABAKH
- The United States, France and Russia said Monday they were united in a commitment to settle the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and urged Armenia and Azerbaijan to take decisive steps to resolve it. 'We regret that the Presidents of Azerbaijan and Armenia did not take the decisive steps that our countries called for in the joint statement' issued at the G8 summit in Deauville last year, the three states said in a statement. 'Military force will not resolve the conflict and would only prolong the suffering and hardships endured by the peoples of the region,' said presidents Francois Hollande of France, Barack Obama of the United States and Vladimir Putin of Russia.'Only a peaceful, negotiated settlement can allow the entire region to move beyond the status quo toward a secure and prosperous future,' the statement said.
