Congressional members of the Armenian National Committee of America sent a letter to President Biden urging him to press Turkey and Azerbaijan into releasing prisoners of war and they leave Armenian territories. In the letter they highlight how Azerbaijan was able to make quick advances into Armenian territories with the help of Turkish-backed foreign mercenaries, who allegedly have ties to terrorist organizations. The letter concludes by “Without strong American leadership, Turkey and Azerbaijan will continue to violate human rights and undermine democracy while destabilizing the region. The United States must make clear that there are consequences for these hostile activities.”Earlier this week “In Defense of Christians” and “the Hellenic American Leadership Council” had also urged President Biden in pressing Erdogen and stopping all US military aid to Azerbaijan.
