The United States welcomes the announcement by Armenia and Azerbaijan of the release of two Azerbaijani and thirty-two Armenian detainees. This commitment represents an important confidence building measure as the sides work to finalize a peace agreement and normalize relations.

The United States will continue to strongly support efforts to reach a durable and dignified peace.
