Rep. Sherman calls for expanded U.S. assistance for Artsakh Armenians
Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA) - who spearheaded the first U.S. aid package to Artsakh in 1998 - stressed the importance of expanding assistance to Artsakh's forcibly displaced Armenians and cutting all aid to Azerbaijan, ANCA reported.
"Now, that's not true justice. True justice is when those people can return to their ancestral homes where they lived for a thousand and more years in Artsakh. But until that happens, Armenia needs the aid that the Administration has promised us if this [Supplemental] bill passes, and I think it will pass," Sherman said.
