The Congress of European Azerbaijanis has addressed to the
U.S. Congress to express disturbance over $8 million assistance in 2010
to the separatist regime, which occupied Nagorno-Karabakh, integral
part of Azerbaijan, and seven surrounding Azerbaijani districts.

The document says U.S.’s supporting Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity
as OSCE Minsk Group co-chair is contradictory to providing assistance
to Nagorno-Karabakh separatists.

The congress called on U.S. President Obama to deter such kind of
steps, which could shatter USA’s international image.
