These issues include, but are not limited to, our legislative priorities of ending U.S. complicity in Turkey\u2019s denial of the Armenian Genocide, security and self-determination for the independent Artsakh Republic, and the growth of U.S.-Armenia economic, political, and military relations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Commenting on their meeting, following the November 8th elections, Hamparian added that the ANCA will work with the House leadership and Congressional Republican friends to reach out to the Trump transition team and incoming Administration. Among the priorities, Administration and Congressional are:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2014 An end to U.S. complicity in Turkey\u2019s denial of truth and justice for the Armenian Genocide.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2014 U.S. support for security and self-determination for the independent Artsakh Republic (Nagorno Karabakh)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2014 U.S. pressure on Baku to stop obstructing the Royce-Engel proposals for Nagorno Karabakh peace.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2014 Continued direct U.S. assistance to Nagorno Karabakh, to support rehabilitation efforts and de-mining activity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2014 A U.S.-Armenia Tax Treaty to eliminate the threat of double taxation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2014 A Millennium Challenge compact with Armenia to support Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2014 A fundamental reevaluation of U.S.-Turkey ties, including limits on arms sales and the re-positioning of NATO nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2014 Increased assistance to help Armenia serve as a safe haven for Armenians, Christians, and other Middle East refugees.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u2014 Close gaps in the delivery of need-based humanitarian aid to Armenians and other at-risk communities in Syria.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The ANCA endorsed Speaker Ryan in the 2016 election. He is a member of the Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues and has historically been supportive of Armenian American issues in Congress.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2010, during consideration of the Armenian Genocide Resolution (H.Res.252), Congressman Ryan signed a letter to then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi pledging his support for this bipartisan genocide prevention measure. Speaker Pelosi had shared with the ANCA the need to secure Republican support for the measure as a requirement for scheduling it for a vote of the full House. Congressman Ryan stepped forward, joining with several of his senior House Republican colleagues in pledging, in writing, to vote in favor of H.Res.252.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Despite this letter, Speaker Pelosi did not bring the Armenian Genocide resolution to a vote.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Photo: House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) and ANCA Chairman Raffi
