Text of letter to President Trump
Dear Mr. President,
I am writing – in the wake of Azerbaijan violating a U.S.-brokered cease-fire – to ask you to officially recognize the Artsakh Republic, as an urgent necessary response to the genocidal campaign being waged by Azerbaijan and its Turkish/ISIS allies against Armenians upon their ancient homeland. This recognition should be part of a comprehensive response to Baku that includes:
1) Recognizing the Artsakh Republic’s independence
2) Banning arms sales to Turkey and Azerbaijan
3) Stopping the military and security aid program to Baku
4) Enforcing Section 907 of the FREEDOM Support Act
5) Imposing Magnitsky sanctions on Erdogan and Aliyev
6) Investigating evidence of Azerbaijani war crimes
7) Punishing Turkish Arms Export Control law violations
8) Implementing the Royce-Engle Peace Proposal
9) Removing barriers to U.S.-Artsakh travel and contacts
10) Delivering humanitarian & development aid to Artsakh
Thank you for your attention to these requests for immediate action on each of these ten policy priorities.
Sincerely,
Letter to your U.S. Senators:
