because of financial crisis, Armenian Assembly of America (AAA)
Regional Director in RA and NKR, Arpi Vardanyan told a news conference.
"Recently AAA representatives supported the adoption resolution on
foreign aid, suggesting allocating $70 million of economic assistance
and $5 million of military assistance to Armenia, as well as $10
million of humanitarian aid to NKR. They also called for enhancing
restrictions on U.S. assistance to Azerbaijan, in light of continued
Azerbaijani government incitement of a military solution of Nagorno
Karabagh conflict."

military assistance and $8 million of humanitarian aid to NKR
