In a recent statement, Member of Parliament Konul Nurullayeva emphasized the significance of maintaining robust US-Azerbaijan relations despite ongoing normalization talks between Baku and Yerevan.

"President Ilham Aliyev's participation in the Munich Security Conference and discussions with US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken underscored America's interest in elevating ties with Azerbaijan. The meeting addressed Azerbaijan's hosting of COP29, receiving support from Blinken, who expressed the US commitment to ensuring the event's success and fostering lasting peace between Azerbaijan and Armenia. President Aliyev affirmed that a swift peace treaty with Armenia aligns with Azerbaijan's national interests.

Positive steps were noted in the bilateral meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, emphasizing the importance of peace negotiations and border delimitation agreements. President Aliyev stressed the need for US-Azerbaijan relations to evolve independently of the Armenia-Azerbaijan normalization process. The Munich meetings showcased prospects for bilateral development, signaling a shift from past misunderstandings related to Armenia's destructive stance.

The enduring history of cooperation and partnership between the US and Azerbaijan holds substantial potential in political, economic, trade, security, and energy realms. The upcoming COP29, hosted by Azerbaijan, further enhances collaboration opportunities. While the normalization process with Armenia continues, Azerbaijan reaffirms its commitment to regional peace and stability, with the US welcoming and contributing to these efforts."
