"Barack Obama, in the next four years will be the U.S. President. We do not expect changes in U.S. foreign policy," said the United States Ambassador Richard Morningstar, speaking before the people keeping track of the voting in the building of the Azerbaijan Diplomatic Academy.
According to Morningstar, Obama in the next 4 years will strengthen relations with Azerbaijan. "Azerbaijan is an important partner for the United States, and our relations will be strengthened," he said.
Addressing the audience, the Ambassador said, "Today you saw the elections in America and found the real meaning of democracy. During the election, the candidates were free to meet with voters, conduct political debate and distribute advertising. It is a living symbol of democracy," the diplomat said. -03C04-

The United States and the European Union, which tried to position themselves as mediators in the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict, have come up with nothing and merely copied Russia's ideas, distorting their essence in order to "hijack" the peace process for themselves. However, their true goal was to take control of the region, to insert themselves into it, and to push out Russia, as well as Iran and Türkiye, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated at a briefing on November 13.
