Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) released a statement congratulating the citizens of Nagorno Karabakh on their free and fair elections held last week in which they reelected President Bako Sahakyan.
"Last Thursday, the people of Artsakh went to their polls to elect a new president in what has been widely reported as a free and fair election. I offer my congratulations to President Bako Sahakyan, and wish him well as Nagorno Karabakh Republic continues its hard-won progress,” Rep. Schiff said.
“By their continuing devotion to freedom and democracy, despite two decades of violence and threats from its larger, richer and undemocratic neighbor, the people of Artsakh have reminded the world of their commitment to representative government. Their cause is our cause, and they will continue to have my strongest support.”
