<p>During visits to Armenia and Azerbaijan in February, the Minister for the European
Neighbourhood and Americas urged both parties to work with the International Committee
of the Red Cross (ICRC) to expedite the return of all prisoners of war. In her most
recent conversations with the Azerbaijani and Armenian Foreign Ministers, on 14 June
and 6 September respectively, the Minister for the European Neighbourhood and Americas
raised the importance of the return of all prisoners of war and detainees and welcomed
the most recent exchanges that have taken place. The UK continues to work with partners,
including the United States in its capacity as Co-Chair of the OSCE Minsk Group, to
encourage Armenia and Azerbaijan to settle all matters related to last year's conflict
including the return of all prisoners of war and detainees.</p>
