US Congressmen urged to stop funding Azerbaijan and instead to assist Armenia and Artsakh, Artsakhpress reports referring to the Voice of America.

During the hearings of the Congress committee on foreign affairs Congressman Brad Sherman called on the USAID head to provide assistance to Artsakh.

"You know that Armenia, which is blockaded by Turkey and Azerbaijan, deserves our support. You are aware that Nagorno Karabakh, now the Republic of Artsakh, is a neighbor to a militaristic force, and that the southern region of Georgia, which is called Samtskhe–Javakheti, is a region which also deserves most of our support. I believe many of my colleagues have addressed a letter on this occasion", the Congressman said.

37 Congressmen called on their partners to reach the US aid to Armenia 60 million USD.
