/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A solemn event entitled “Progress for Freedom,
Democracy and Economic Development” is being held in the U.S. Congress
today on the occasion of the 14-th anniversary of independence of
Nagorno Karabakh. Vice Speaker of the UK House of Lords, Baroness
Caroline Cox is the honorary guest of the event. Senators Frank
Pallone, Joe Knollenberg, Adam Schiff, George Radanovish are expected
to address the audience. To note, the measure was initiated by the
Armenian Embassy in the U.S., the Armenian National Committee of
America, representations of Nagorno Karabakh and Co-Chairs of the
Congressional Armenian Caucus Frank Pallone and Joe Knollenberg. “It’s
not accidental that the event is held in the U.S. Congress. Still in
1989, when neither Armenia for Karabakh was independent, the Congress
came to support the liberation struggle of NK and RA. Presently the
U.S. is the only state rendering assistance to Nagorno Karabakh. It
proves that the existence of Nagorno Karabakh and its aspiration
for international recognition are admitted by the Congressmen,”
Hayk Gugarats, member of the Armenian Embassy in the U.S. said,
RFE/RL reported.
