Congressman Adam Schiff has introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives condemning Azerbaijan's aggression against Armenia.

"Azerbaijan must stop attacking and terrorizing innocent Armenian civilians. And the U.S. and its allies must unequivocally condemn Azeri actions. 
 
Today, we introduced a resolution with a resounding message: No more U.S. support for Azerbaijan. It must pay for its belligerence," Schiff wrote on Twitter.

"We strongly condemn the deadly attacks by Azeri forces in sovereign Armenian territory. This egregious escalation of Azeri violence shows just how emboldened the Aliyev regime has become when its unprovoked aggression is met by deafening silence and false equivocations from the international community – empowering Azerbaijan to continue and expand its attacks. 

We call on the Biden administration and State Department to unequivocally condemn Azerbaijan’s actions and cease all assistance to the Aliyev regime immediately. And we stand firmly with the people of Armenia and Artsakh in support of their territorial integrity, and their right to peace and freedom," said Congressmen Adam Schiff, Frank Pallone, Jackie Speier, David Valadao and Gus Bilirakis in a statement.

Despite Azerbaijan's continued and well-documented offensive use of force against Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, the State Department continues to provide military assistance to Azerbaijan by waiving Section 907 of the Freedom Support Act.

The submitted resolution, inter alia:                                 

Condemns Azerbaijan's unprovoked military attack on Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh on September 13, 2022, and calls for an immediate and unconditional cease-fire;

Urges President Biden to immediately cease all assistance to Azerbaijan under Section 907 of the Freedom Support Act, and to make clear to President Aliyev's administration that further attacks on Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh will result in sanctions or other measures;

Reaffirms the United States' strong support for Armenia's sovereignty and territorial integrity and its strong opposition to Azerbaijan's military aggression in blatant violation of international laws and norms;

 also:

Supports U.S. and international humanitarian assistance programs to meet the immediate needs of victims of Azerbaijani aggression in both Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh.
