04/24/26 - Rep. Pallone tweeted "There is only one word to describe what happened to the Armenians in 1915, and the Trump Administration STILL refuses to use it.

For the second year in a row, Trump has refused to say the words “Armenian Genocide.” This comes after his Vice President deleted a post from his visit to the Armenian Genocide memorial during his recent visit to Yerevan.

This is a clear pattern of historical revisionism and an insult to the memory of those who perished—as well as America's Armenian community." View the tweet here.

04/24/26 - Rep. Pallone tweeted "On this day in 1915, the genocide of over one million Armenians in the former Ottoman Empire began with the murder of Armenian intellectuals and community leaders.

02/19/26 - Rep. Pallone tweeted "Bloodsoaked strongmen like Aliyev have no place being paraded around Washington, and they have no right to send hired thugs to attack protestors on the streets of our capital city.

02/18/26 - Rep. Pallone tweeted "Yet another despicable and unjust sentencing of an Artsakh Armenian by the Aliyev regime that shows their contempt for international law and human rights.

02/10/26 - Rep.

02/06/26 - Rep. Pallone tweeted "I'm disgusted by Azerbaijan's unjust and callous sentencing of Armenian captives from Artsakh to life imprisonment—they must be released, immediately.

I'm calling on Vice President Vance to advocate for the release of these prisoners during his upcoming visit to the region." View the tweet here.

01/30/26 - Rep. Pallone tweeted "These prejudicial comments by Dr. Oz about Armenian Americans are deeply irresponsible and harmful.

It’s a desperate ploy to scapegoat a community that has given so much to the fabric of American life, and an attempt to mimic Trump’s efforts to vilify entire ethnic or racial groups.

I strongly support California’s fight against this smear campaign." View the tweet here.

01/13/26 - Rep. Pallone tweeted "History teaches us that executive meddling in a country's economy is a recipe for disaster. Erdogan meddled in Turkey's central bank because he wanted to cut interest rates, and it sent inflation and poverty SOARING. Similar examples in Hungary and Argentina.

It seems like Trump is hellbent on wiping out your savings and sending our economy off a cliff—just like these other wannabe authoritarians." View the tweet here.

Azerbaijan’s Aliyev dynasty hasn't gotten the memo. They’ve unjustifiably imprisoned democracy activists like Gubad Ibadoghlu, as well as the entire leadership of the Republic of Artsakh, for over two years—in violation of the Universal Declaration. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

This government only deserves contempt for its heinous crimes. This International Human Rights Day, I’m again calling on Aliyev to free Gubad, free Artsakh’s POWs, and end their reign of terror over Azerbaijan’s people." View the tweet here.

10/06/25 - Rep. Pallone tweeted "First, Aliyev went after democracy activist Gubad Ibadoghlu for advocating free speech and documenting his corruption. Now, court dates have been set for several more anti-corruption and human rights activists: Bashir Suleymanli, Nargiz Mukhtarova, and Galib Bayramov—Gubad Ibadoghlu's brother. Aliyev is going after them on totally baseless charges in order to silence their work.

The State Department needs to condemn Aliyev and take action to stop his collective punishment of human rights activists. Everyone deserves a government with respect for the rule of law—from America to Azerbaijan." View the tweet here.
