ICYMI: Rep. Schiff Joins Pan Armenian Council of Western USA to Speak on the Humanitarian Crisis in Artsakh
Burbank, CA — Yesterday, Congressman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) spoke at a press conference hosted by the Pan Armenian Council of Western USA (PAC WUSA). This conference launched a 24-hour nationwide hunger strike to demonstrate unity with the 120,000 residents of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) facing a dire humanitarian crisis caused by Azerbaijan’s ongoing illegal blockade of the Lachin Corridor, the only road connecting Armenia and Artsakh.
Joining Schiff were key community figures, including Congressman Brad Sherman, Los Angeles City Council President Paul Krekorian, and Glendale Mayor Dan Brotman. The purpose of the press conference was to demand tangible action by President Biden’s Administration to end the illegal blockade of the Lachin Corridor by Azerbaijan’s tyrannical regime, ensuring security and stability for Artsakh, as well as invigorating a recommitment for its right to self-determination.
