Armenian Time. As part of the work carried out by the Armenian Cause Committee in America, the Vice Chairman of the Congressional Armenian Caucus, Brad Sherman, along with Congress members Tom McClintock, Judy Chu, and Laura Friedman, will hold a press conference on June 23 in the U.S. Congress to mark the 1000th day of the illegal detention of the Artsakh military-political leadership, prisoners of war, and civilian hostages by Azerbaijan.
It is noteworthy that the press conference takes place during a period when the House Foreign Affairs Committee is preparing to discuss Brad Sherman’s legislative amendment this week, which demands the immediate and unconditional release of all Armenian prisoners of war and detained individuals by Azerbaijan.
The conference will also discuss other pro-Armenian legislative proposals presented within the framework of the National Defense Authorization Act for the fiscal year 2027 and the appropriations act for national security and foreign operations.
The conference will begin on June 23 at 5:00 PM Washington time.
