ABOLISHMENT OF SECTION 907 OF FREEDOM SUPPORT ACT – RESULT OF TERROR
ACTS AGAINST U.S.
YEREVAN, JANUARY 22. ARMINFO. The abolishment of section 907 of
Freedom Support Act in 2001 was a reaction to the terror acts against
the US, says US Ambassador to Armenia John Evans.
The abolishment of the section banning military support of Azerbaijan
was an attempt to find ways of cooperation with that country in
fighting terrorism in the regions like Afghanistan. The truth is that
the US is developing active military cooperation with both Armenia and
Azerbaijan. The recent dispatch of Armenian peacekeepers to Iran is a
vivid proof of such cooperation. The US welcomes it. It is important
that nobody in Moscow, Washington or any other world capital wants to
break the equilibrium in the South Caucasus as everybody wants peace
in this region. Naturally any bellicose statements are blamed for both
sides would like to avoid war resumption. On the contrary, the US is
encouraging the sides in their search for peaceful solutions to their
conflict.
