Azerbaijan Must Be Held Accountable for Aggression Against the Armenian People, Says US Congresswoman

Continuing the blockade of the Lachin Corridor poses a risk of humanitarian catastrophe. This concern was expressed by US Congresswoman Linda Sánchez during a recent phone call with Gevorg Iskajyan, a representative of the Armenian National Committee in Artsakh, who informed her about the situation on the ground, as reported by Armenpress.

"Around 120,000 Armenians have been deprived of access to food, fuel, and medicine. The region has also been left without heating and electricity in winter conditions. If this continues, a humanitarian disaster could arise. We must make it clear to Azerbaijan that imposing their will on the Armenian people by force is unacceptable. I urge the administration to ensure that assistance reaches the people of Artsakh," noted the Congresswoman.

Highlighting the need to hold Azerbaijan accountable, she emphasized: "My thoughts today are with those who are suffering in these inhumane conditions, and I reaffirm my commitment to making sure that Azerbaijan is held accountable for its aggression against the Armenian people," stated Linda Sánchez.
