US committed to supporting Azerbaijan's efforts to bolster European energy security, Erika Olson says
“As we look to the future, we remain committed to supporting Azerbaijan’s efforts to diversify its economy and bolster European energy security, just as we look forward to bolstering commercial, educational, and cultural links between our two countries," Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Erika Olson said on the 30th anniversary of diplomatic relations with Azerbaija, as quoted by SİA.
"We remain committed to supporting Azerbaijan’s efforts to strengthen respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. We will work with Azerbaijan and others in the region to build the foundations for a lasting peace. As we observe this milestone anniversary in our diplomatic relations, we are not just looking back, but also forward. We have been partners for 30 years – and I am confident our partnership will carry us into the decades ahead. We look forward to working with Azerbaijan on a democratic, prosperous, and peaceful future for all," she said.
The United States established diplomatic relations with Azerbaijan in 1992, at the time of its independence. Secretary of State Baker visited Azerbaijan on February 12, 1992. President George H.W. Bush announced the decision in a press statement on February 19, 1992. The U.S. Embassy in Baku was opened on March 16, 1992, with Robert Finn as Chargé d’Affaires ad interim.
