US Assistant Secretary of State Elizabeth Jones said in Yerevan today that
the creation of the Armenian-Turkish "reconciliation commission" was a
"private initiative". Jones said this after a meeting with Armenian President
Robert Kocharyan in reply to a question from Mediamax as to whether the US
administration had anything to do with the creation of the Armenian-Turkish
"reconciliation commission". The assistant secretary of state said at the
same time that the USA was ready to support any initiatives directed at
normalizing relations between the nations.
