The United States is working on creation of an international mission that would monitor Azerbaijan’s fulfillment of its obligations to ensure the rights and security of the residents of Nagorno-Karabakh, State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said. “We believe that an international mission is necessary to provide the people of Nagorno-Karabakh and the international community with transparency, assurances and confidence that their rights and security will be protected, consistent with the public statements that Azerbaijan has made,’’ Miller said at a briefing for reporters. He added that such an initiative is "actively being discussed" and the US is working on it with allies.
