The Armenian Assembly commended Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues
Co-Chair Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-NJ) for promising to fight against the
Administration's attempts to provide Azerbaijan a 20 percent increase
in military aid over Armenia in the Fiscal Year 2007 budget.
Pallone told Congress yesterday that, "A lack of military parity
would weaken ongoing peace negotiations regarding Nagorno Karabakh.
It will also contribute to further instability in the region if
military parity is not achieved and it undermines the role of the
U.S. as an impartial mediator of the Nagorno Karabagh conflict."
Pallone also said he will fight to increase economic assistance to
Armenia and provide for humanitarian aid to Nagorno Karabakh.
