A resolution condemning Azerbaijan's blockade of the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh and ongoing human rights violations.
SRES 244 is a Senate resolution condemning Azerbaijan's blockade of the Lachin Corridor, which cuts off critical supplies to approximately 120,000 Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh - including 30,000 children, 20,000 elderly, and 9,000 people with disabilities. The resolution demands the U.S. suspend military aid to Azerbaijan, supports sanctions against officials responsible for human rights violations, and urges international investigations into Azerbaijani actions. It specifically references Azerbaijan’s 2022 blockade of the corridor, sabotage of infrastructure (like gas pipelines and hospitals), and violations of the 2020 ceasefire agreement. The resolution also calls for U.S. leadership in securing humanitarian aid and international observer access to the region.
