Congressman: U.S. should call out Azerbaijan for aggression in KarabakhMay 27, 2022 - 16:59 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - U.S. Congressman Frank Pallone believes the United States should call out Azerbaijan for their unprovoked aggression in Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh). "I'm encouraged by [Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken's] conversation with Armenia PM Nikol Pashinyan," Pallone tweeted. "The U.S. should continue to play an active role to facilitate peace and security in the region, but we should not hesitate to call out Azerbaijan for their unprovoked aggression in Artsakh." Blinken and Pashinyan spoke over the phone on May 24, and the former offered assistance with Armenia and Azerbaijan's border delimitation and demarcation efforts. The Secretary also reaffirmed U.S. readiness to help by engaging bilaterally and with likeminded partners, including through its role as an OSCE Minsk Group co-chair, to help Armenia and Azerbaijan find a long-term comprehensive peace.
