On October 18, the Helsinki Commission at the U.S. Congress organized a briefing titled, \u201cAverting All-Out War in Nagorno-Karabakh: The Role of the U.S. and OSCE.\u201d The briefing was the first such event to be held in Congress since the April 2016 War and included two former U.S. envoys for Karabakh Carey Cavanaugh (1999-2001) and James B. Warlick (2013-16), as well as Magdalena Grono, the Europe and Central Asia Program Director at the International Crisis Group (ICG).<\/p>\n

The briefing video is available on the Commission\u2019s\u00a0Facebook page<\/a>. Speakers urged Armenian and Azerbaijani leaders to refocus their rhetoric on the benefits of peace rather than readiness for war and also to implement the previously agreed and long discussed confidence building measures that Azerbaijani leadership has refused to implement. Cavanaugh said the de-mining works carried out in Karabakh with U.S. funding \u2013 which Azerbaijan also opposes \u2013 are in the interests of all sides.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Cavanaugh proposed specific\u00a0penalties<\/a>\u00a0against cease-fire violations as part of a policy to preempt large-scale fighting and stabilize the security situation to make negotiations possible. And ICG published its\u00a0report<\/a>\u00a0\u201cNagorno Karabakh\u2019s Gathering War Clouds\u201d on June 1, warning of potential humanitarian consequences of renewed large-scale fighting.\u00a0Writing for ICG in 2007\u00a0Grono predicted\u00a0<\/a>that the risk of war \u201cmay reach a new level around 2012, when Azerbaijan\u2019s oil revenues are expected to begin to decline\u2026 At that point, Baku might be tempted to conclude that the balance of power was at its most favorable and that an appeal to extreme nationalism could counteract popular disenchantment with the regime.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Azerbaijani government expressed some annoyance with the hearing. The state-controlled Trend news agency\u00a0suggested<\/a>\u00a0that \u201cThe [Helsinki] Commission\u2019s hearings aim at supporting the aggressive policy of Armenia, which causes due demur in Baku.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elman Nasirov, deputy head of the presidential administration\u2019s Center for Strategic Studies\u00a0agreed\u00a0<\/a>that hearings \u201cserve only Armenia\u2019s interests.\u201d \u201cWe know about Christopher Smith, who heads the Helsinki Commission,\u201d he said. \u201cHe holds a pro-Armenian position. Smith actively participated in the adoption of the Section 907 of the US Freedom Support Act on October 24, 1992.\u201d That measure sanctioned Azerbaijan for its effort to capture Nagorno Karabakh and expel its population.<\/p>\n

The Helsinki Commission is co-chaired by Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) and Rep. Smith (R-N.J.). Separately, Congressman Smith has been a leading congressional proponent of sanctioning senior Azerbaijan officials for continued crackdown on that regime\u2019s political opponents and critical media.<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n <\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":139,"featured_media":923,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-922","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-institute-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nCongressional Briefing Held on U.S. Role in Karabakh Conflict<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/armenian\/2017\/10\/21\/congressional-briefing-held-on-u-s-role-in-karabakh-conflict\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Congressional Briefing Held on U.S. Role in Karabakh Conflict -
