Chris Smith (R-NJ), raised concerns about Azerbaijani war crimes and political hostages: \u201cIt\u2019s very clear that after the genocide committed by Aliyev against the Armenians, there are many, many political prisoners and POWs being held\u2026 I would just encourage you to do whatever you can to get those men and women released \u2014 at least 300.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rubio acknowledged the urgency of the issue, stating that the U.S. is using its diplomatic presence to prioritize human rights and peace. \u201cThe issues you raised about prisoners and human rights are critical\u2026 Azerbaijan provides us an opportunity to do that in the context of the broader peace that we&#8217;re trying to establish.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Video of Rep.

Jim Costa (D-CA) urged U.S. support for Armenia and called for an end to U.S. military aid to Azerbaijan, stating: \u201cWe\u2019ve tried to get Republican and Democratic administrations to forego the waiver on Section 907 on military aid to Azerbaijan. Finally, last year, the Biden Administration rightfully refused to issue the waiver. I think it should be permanent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secretary Rubio replied, \u201cWe have not made a determination on that yet because what we are focused on now is getting them to agree to a peace agreement that does not cause them to invade a neighboring country, Armenia,\u201d calling an Azerbaijan-Armenia war, \u201cdestructive, counterproductive, and the last thing we need right now in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Video of Rep.
