Letter to President Trump
Subject: Urgent Action Needed to Secure Justice for Armenia and Artsakh
Dear President Trump,
As an American ally of Armenia deeply concerned about the future the world’s first Christian nation, I am writing to express alarm over the reckless and irresponsible August 8, 2025 White House-backed agreement between Azerbaijan and Armenia.
This agreement – announced with much fanfare as a step toward peace – fails to address the urgent humanitarian and security crises caused by Azerbaijan’s ongoing aggression, ethnic cleansing, and occupation. It ignores the plight of at least 23 Armenian prisoners of war and civilian captives facing abuse in Azerbaijani custody, the 150,000 Armenians forcibly displaced from Artsakh, and the illegal occupation of Armenian territory.
On October 23, 2024, you pledged: “When I am President, I will protect persecuted Christians, I will work to stop the violence and ethnic cleansing, and we will restore PEACE between Armenia and Azerbaijan.” I ask you to honor that pledge by taking the following actions:
Mr. President, true peace cannot be reached by appeasing an aggressor. I urge you to use the full weight of your office to ensure justice, accountability, and security for Armenia and Artsakh.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]

Subject: Call for Justice and Security in the South Caucasus
Dear [Senator/Representative] [Last Name],
I am writing as an American ally of Armenia, a constituent of yours deeply concerned by the dangers of President Trump’s August 8, 2025, trilateral “peace” deal with the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan.
To this day, Azerbaijan continues to unlawfully detain and abuse Armenian prisoners of war and civilian captives, destroy Armenian cultural heritage, and occupy sovereign Armenian territory. The White House announcement failed to address these urgent issues – offering no demand for the release of 23 Armenian POWs, no plan for the safe and dignified return of 150,000 Artsakh Armenians displaced by ethnic cleansing, and no commitment to end Azerbaijan’s occupation of nearly 100 square miles of Armenia’s land.
Instead, the agreement rewards aggression – establishing the so-called “Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity” (TRIPP) and waiving Section 907 restrictions on U.S. military aid to Azerbaijan. This removes an important deterrent against further Azerbaijani escalation.
I urge you to:
1. Issue a public statement calling for the immediate release of Armenian POWs, the return of displaced Artsakh Armenians, the withdrawal of Azerbaijani forces from Armenia, and the enforcement of Section 907 restrictions.
2. Support legislation to apply Global Magnitsky Sanctions against Azerbaijani officials responsible for grave human rights abuses.
3. Support legislative action to maintain the prohibition on U.S. military assistance to Azerbaijan.
The United States must not reward Azerbaijan’s aggression or ethnic cleansing. Please stand with the Armenian American community in supporting justice, accountability, and lasting peace in the South Caucasus.
Sincerely,
Letter to U.S. Senators / Representatives who have issued statements (Letters will be sent individually)
Subject: Thank You for Standing with Armenia and Artsakh Armenians
Dear [Senator/Representative] [Last Name],
As a constituent who cares deeply about Armenia, I want to thank you for speaking out in support of justice and security for Armenia and Artsakh following the August 8, 2025, trilateral meeting at the White House.
Your commitment to securing the release of Armenian prisoners, supporting the safe return of Artsakh Armenians, protecting Armenia’s sovereignty, ensuring the withdrawal of Azerbaijani forces from Armenian territory, and enforcing Section 907 restrictions on military aid to Azerbaijan is deeply appreciated.
The Armenian American community and all American friends of Armenia value your leadership in standing up against aggression and ethnic cleansing, and for championing a just and lasting peace in the South Caucasus.
Thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,
