Costa Statement on Renewed Azeri Aggression in Artsakh

(FRESNO) - Congressman Costa (CA-16) issued the following statement in response to reports of military aggression in the region:

"Azerbaijan has made it clear it does not respect the ceasefire agreement as it continues to choose violence over progress towards peace," said Costa. "Azerbaijan has continued to fuel this fire by failing to recognize the sovereignty of the Republic of Artsakh, while Turkey has helped enable this aggression. I condemn the actions taken by Azerbaijan and stand ready to support the Armenian people. I call upon all parties to return to the negotiating table to reach a peaceful solution."
