US Congress House of Representatives committee for military aids
adopted a decision to preserve parity in rendering military assistance
to Azerbaijan and Armenia (APA).
Though Bush administration proposed increasing the amount of military
aid to Azerbaijan by 40% in comparison with Armenia, this proposal
was not supported by lower house of the Congress. The United States
will render $62 million to Armenia and $5 million to the alleged
"Nagorno Karabakh Republic" in 2007. This amount is $12 million
more than that proposed by Bush Administration. However, official
Washington decreased the amount of aids rendered to Armenia for $8
million in comparison with last year.
