    SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, good morning, and it's a great pleasure to
    welcome the foreign minister here today. The relationship between
    the United States and Armenia is a very lasting and durable one. The
    Obama Administration is committed to broadening it, deepening it,
    working with Armenia to assist them in their continued development and
    aspirations. And it's a great pleasure to welcome the minister. And
    I look forward to our talks, sir.

    FOREIGN MINISTER NALBANDIAN: Thank you, Madame Secretary. Thank you
    very much for your warm welcome. Our meeting is a good opportunity
    to move forward our bilateral agenda and to discuss a wide range of
    issues. We are determined to strengthen, to deepen, to enhance our
    friendly partnership with the United States. This is the main message
    of my visit to Washington. And I would like to use this opportunity
    to express our thanks to the Administration of the United States,
    to Madame Secretary, and to the State Department for all constant
    efforts to help to support the normalization process with Turkey and
    settlement - peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

    Thank you very much.

    SECRETARY CLINTON: It's an honor to assist. Thank you, Mr. Minister.
