Sherman, who urged the enforcement of Section 907 restrictions on U.S. aid to Azerbaijan, sanctioning the Aliyev regime for the ethnic cleansing of Artsakh. Citing President Aliyev\u2019s escalating rhetoric claiming Armenia\u2019s capital Yerevan is Azerbaijani territory, Rep. Sherman urged the Biden Administration to provide defensive military weapons to Armenia, \u201cto avoid the next tragedy, which is being planned in Baku.\u201d \u00a0Rep. Sherman concluded his remarks, with a message to President Aliyev, who claims that his main enemies are the Armenians of the world. \u201cWell, I have news for you, Mr. Aliyev. Your main enemies are every person in the world who believes in democracy, who believes in human rights, and who believes in justice.\u201d<br><br>Condemning Azerbaijan\u2019s ethnic cleansing of Artsakh, Rep. Costa noted, \u201cWe must do more\u201d to provide US humanitarian assistance to Artsakh\u2019s forcibly displaced population through the foreign aid supplemental currently under consideration. \u00a0\u201cWe must hold the Azerbaijan government responsible for not only the ethnic cleansing but the cultural genocide that they continue to attempt to implement as part of a systematic effort that has long been the history of Azerbaijan and their attitude toward the Armenian people and the culture and the religion.\u00a0 The threats that Azerbaijan is now making toward Armenia, I believe, are serious and real, and therefore should be treated as such,\u201d stated Rep. Costa.\u00a0 He also called for concrete US action to secure the return of Artsakh leaders and Armenian POWs illegally held hostage by Azerbaijan. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image

Stepanyan \u2013 made the case to U.S. legislators and international religious freedom leaders for the safe return of indigenous Armenians to their ancient homeland,\u201d said ANCA Executive Director Aram Hamparian. \u201cToday\u2019s Congressional briefing was a great opportunity for legislators to hear first-hand about the Artsakh Genocide and also for them to consult among themselves about the

culminated in the September 2023 genocidal attack that forcibly emptied Artsakh of its indigenous Armenian population.\u00a0 The Artsakh leaders shared the history of Azerbaijan\u2019s premeditated attacks against Artsakh\u2019s Armenians, which laid the foundation for the 2023 genocide.<br><br>Beglaryan and Stepanyan called for bold US and international leadership to hold Azerbaijan accountable for the Artsakh genocide, including via:<br><br>\u2014 Sanctions on Azerbaijan, building on Senate passage of S.3000, which enforce Section 907 restriction on U.S. military and security aid to Azerbaijan.\u00a0 They also encouraged the application of Magnitsky sanctions on Aliyev government officials for war crimes and ethnic cleansing committed during the 2020 Azerbaijan-Turkey war against Armenia and Artsakh and subsequent genocidal aggression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\"

Preservation of Artsakh\u2019s Armenian cultural and religious heritage already under threat of destruction by Azerbaijan.<br><br>Stepanyan and Beglaryan stressed that without international efforts to address the Artsakh people&#8217;s right to safe return and justice for the crimes committed, it will be impossible to establish sustainable peace in the region. They also emphasized that the systemic anti-Armenian hatred fomented by the Azerbaijani Government must be eradicated to ensure an enduring settlement of the conflict and regional stability.<br><br>The speakers underscored that enforcement of Section 907, via enactment of S. 3000, would represent a meaningful contribution to regional peace. They also touched on related initiatives, among them ANCA-backed resolutions pending in the U.S. House, H.R. 5686 and H.R.5683. These measures would hold Azerbaijan accountable for ethnic cleansing against Artsakh\u2019s indigenous Armenians, and help deter further military aggression against Armenia by providing foreign military financing (FMF) aid to Armenia. They also raised H.Res.735, requesting a report on Azerbaijan&#8217;s human rights practices under Section 502B of the Foreign Assistance Act; and H.Res.861, a bipartisan resolution introduced by Rep. Schiff calling on the United States to ensure the immediate release of Armenian POWs and other detained persons illegally held by Azerbaijan.<br><br>The ANCA is accompanying Beglaryan and Stepanyan as they represent Artsakh interests during two weeks of Washington DC meetings with elected officials, policymakers, and religious freedom advocates, as part of a 120,0000 Reasons coalition effort supported by the Tufenkian Foundation and the Philos Project.<br><br>Earlier this week, Stepanyan offered powerful remarks on Capitol Hill at an International Religious Freedom Summit-related forum calling for U.S. government and non-governmental organization leadership to provide for the secure return of Artsakh Armenians, protection of Artsakh&#8217;s Christian heritage, and sanctions against the Azerbaijani government.\u00a0 Throughout the IRF Summit, they discussed the broad range of challenges and opportunities for international action to assist forcibly displaced Artsakh refugees.<br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8212;
