РусскийANCA testifies on Azerbaijan’s actions against Artsakh in Congress
The Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA), in testimony submitted this week for a Capitol Hill hearing of the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, called the attention of U.S. legislators to the truly alarming escalation of [Azerbaijan’s] state-driven anti-Armenian incitements, intolerance, and acts of violence.
ANCA Government Affairs Director Kate Nahapetian documented the manner in which Baku’s policies and practices violate international human rights principles, abrogate Azerbaijan’s own treaty obligations, destabilize the region, and create a dangerous environment conducive to the renewal of full-scale hostilities.
Nahapetian stressed that “we cannot continue to look away and ignore Azerbaijan’s destructive and hateful policies towards Armenians”. “ Neither the U.S. government nor our OSCE partners should ever, in any way, acquiesce to Baku’s anti-Armenian policies or increasingly violent efforts to subjugate the people and government of Karabakh to despotic foreign rule,” said Nahapetian.
