/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In the wake of renewed threats this week against
Nagorno Karabakh by Azerbaijan's President and the March 4 military
attack by the Azerbaijani military against defensive positions
in the Mardakert region in northern Nagorno Karabakh, the Armenian
National Committee (ANCA) alerted members of Congress and the broader
Washington, DC foreign policy community to the growing danger that
Azerbaijan represents to U.S. interests in maintaining peace and
stability in the Caucasus region.
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, known for his inflammatory
anti-Armenian rhetoric, stated that, "We have been buying military
machinery, airplanes and ammunition to be ready to liberate the
occupied territories and we are ready to do this."
In letters circulated yesterday afternoon to Congressional offices,
the ANCA called on Senators and Representatives to voice their support
for Nagorno Karabakh's democratic progress and development, to hold
Azerbaijan accountable for its belligerent rhetoric and aggressive
actions, and to promote peace by expanding the level of dialogue
between the U.S. and Nagorno Karabakh.
