In all of our bilateral discussions with countries, particularly Azerbaijan, we make it very clear that Canada wants to see diplomatic resolutions. The country's representatives tell us that this is their desire as well, and we continue to see a great deal of effort on their part to engage in diplomacy. As for the examples of rhetoric and negative pressure from Azerbaijan, which are numerous, this is always a concern and we always indicate that it is not helpful. This is one of the reasons why we continue to make our position clear and to monitor the situation very closely to avoid a return to conflict.
