Joyce Issues Statement on Violent Conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh

BAINBRIDGE – Congressman Dave Joyce (OH-14) issued the following statement on the recent outbreak in violence between Azerbaijan and Armenia in Nagorno-Karabakh:

“As an elected official who represents many Armenian Americans, I strongly condemn the violence between Azerbaijan and Armenia and urge an immediate cease-fire. Hundreds of lives are being lost, including those of innocent civilians. I strongly discourage other nations from fueling another surge in tragic and unacceptable violence and call on the U.S. State Department to remain fully engaged in efforts to secure a peaceful resolution.”
