Adam Schiff is deeply concerned about threat of another Armenian  genocide

ArmInfo. Nonetheless, nothing seems to have to come out of the meeting of the UN Security Council  on August 16 on the blockade of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh).  Member  of the House of Representatives of the US Congress, Co-chair of the  US Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues Adam Schiff stated this in  his video message on his microblog on Twitter.

"There is a humanitarian crisis in Artsakh, 120,000 residents are  deprived of food, medicine and other essential goods, as a result of  which deaths have already been recorded. Armenians living in Artsakh  continue to be under siege, as Azerbaijan blocked the Lachin  corridor, the only road connecting Artsakh with Armenia," Mr. Schiff  noted, in this vein calling for an immediate response to the current  situation.  He also informed that he had a telephone conversation  with the U.S. Ambassador to the UN  and touched upon the  above-mentioned emergency meeting of the Security Council.

"We need a resolution requiring an end to this violation of  international law, it is necessary to ensure the unhindered supply of  food and medicine, as well as the free movement of people.

US President Joe Biden and the US administration need to do so much  more. They need to cut off military aid for Azerbaijan, they need to  make sure that  we bring  an end to this the illegal blockade. We  should not be providing a dime to Azerbaijan at least now, when this  catastrophe continues. The US cannot be silent, the administration  needs to speak and act, and some steps must be taken. Otherwise,  people will continue to die," the American legislator said.

He recalled that thousands of people have already died in the war  unleashed by Azerbaijan in 2020, and this country continues to  illegally keep prisoners of war, violating international law.  In  conclusion, mr. Schiff expressed his deep concern over the threat of  another Armenian genocide.
