Azerbaijan’s unprovoked attacks against the Republic of Artsakh [(Nagorno-Karabakh)] have involved sustained shelling of population centers and the use of cluster munitions that increase the likelihood of civilian casualties. Congresswoman Anna Eshoo has noted this in a statement, reported the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA)

"These tactics violate human rights and Azerbaijani officials must be held accountable for employing them against civilians in Artsakh. The Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act authorizes the president to impose targeted sanctions on human rights abusers, and I’ve joined House colleagues in writing to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo urging the Trump Administration to sanction Azerbaijani officials involved in these heinous attacks," Congresswoman Eshoo’s statement also reads.
