US Senator Adam Schiff delivered a video message of greeting at the opening of the Coordinating Council of Armenian National Committees and Offices.
He specifically welcomed the participants of the conference, stating: “This year we had a moment of progress when President Biden broke the decades of shameful silence by recognizing the Armenian Genocide, but our work is far from over. Right now, thousands of people in Armenia and Artsakh are living under dangerous and ongoing threats from their neighbors, while mourning the loss of their loved ones who are being killed, taken prisoner, displaced, tortured, and illegally detained.
As vice-chair of the Armenian Caucus of the US Congress, I will not rest until we bring home the many prisoners, until refugees return to their homes and we bring lasting and just peace to the region. We will continue to support and strengthen democracy in Armenia and Artsakh, deepen the ties between our peoples. I will always stand by Armenia and Artsakh,” said Senator Adam Schiff.
