Following the recent attacks on Armenia by Azerbaijan, the US House intends to discuss several changes, one of which is to block the supply of defense weapons to Azerbaijan, the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) reported.

"In the wake of the worst Azerbaijani cross-border attacks against Armenia in years, the U.S. House of Representatives is set to consider a number of pro-peace amendments to a major Pentagon authorization bill, including one that would block U.S. defense transfers to Azerbaijan," ANCA said.

“With Azerbaijan escalating its cross-border attack, these amendments offer Congress the opportunity to confront and constrain Aliyev’s aggression,” said ANCA Executive Director Aram Hamparian. “As we approach Monday’s vote on these measures, we ask – with all urgency – that our friends and supporters call on their U.S. Representative to vote yes on the Sherman and Pallone amendments to the National Defense Authorization Act.”

House votes are expected on these amendments as early as the morning of Monday, July 20.
