The U.S. State Department has not yet responded to Azerbaijani Foreign
Ministry’s note of protest against the U.S. Congress assistance worth
$8 million for break-away Nagorno-Karabakh, adviser to Azerbaijani
ambassador to the U.S. Khazar Ibrahim said.

He said heavy snowfall and a period run-up to Christmas slow down
Washington’s response.

Ibrahim said there is heavy snowfall in the U.S capital. "Even
the roads have not been cleared yet. We hardly got to work. Only
Azerbaijani embassy is working among other embassies," he said.

Ibrahim said the response will be available after the holiday.

On Dec. 18, the American side stated that they will provide a response
in a short timeframe.
