On the eve of President Bush's meeting with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, Members of the Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues are calling on the U.S. leader to firmly denounce Azerbaijan's ongoing war mongering, and other actions, against the Republic of Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh. Caucus Co-Chairs Joe Knollenberg (R-MI) and Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-NJ), along with Caucus Members George Radanovich (R-CA) and Adam Schiff (D-CA), sent a letter to President George Bush that states in part: "Azerbaijani government officials have consistently threatened war and fostered anti-Armenian intolerance. Ignoring international criticism, President Aliyev has repeatedly declared that Azerbaijan could launch a new military offensive against Karabakh, and that he is waging a 'cold war' against Armenia where the ongoing negotiations are only a way to achieve unilateral Armenian concessions," reported the Armenian Assembly of America.
