The U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry held telephone talks with the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan on the eve of their meeting in Vienna on 19 November. This was reported by Kerry himself at a joint news conference with the Turkish Foreign Minister in Washington.

"We try to push the process of settlement and will continue our efforts," said Kerry.

Noting the important role of Turkey in the settlement, the Secretary of State said that he had discussed this issue with Ahmet Davutoglu.

Davutoglu said, "Regarding Nagorno-Karabakh and Cyprus, on Nagorno-Karabakh we have been consulting through several mechanisms, co-chairs of Minsk Group and other bilateral consultations. We hope that this frozen conflict will be ending soon and that will bring peace to Caucasia; that will bring peace to the region beyond Caucasia. Therefore, today I am happy to see that John and myself and Turkey and the United States look to this issue from the same perspective, and we hope that this meeting between President Sargsyan and President Aliyev will be successful." -0--
