The US government is seeking international support for the protection of freedom, democracy, and self-determination for the Armenian people and the restoration of security in the Artsakh Republic. According to Robert Kennedy, the US President’s representative, Azerbaijan has been engaged in ethnic cleansing against the Armenian population of the Mountainous Karabakh region since 2020. This offensive has resulted in the displacement of the entire Armenian population, numbering 120,000 individuals. Kennedy expressed concern that the international community is not paying enough attention to this situation, and emphasized the need for action to prevent a recurrence of the tragic events of the 1515 genocide. As a potential future president, he pledged to employ diplomatic efforts and, if necessary, use force to restore the Republic of Armenia and the Mountainous Karabakh to their former state, in order to ensure the self-determination of these regions.

“As President, I will utilize our moral responsibility, national interests, and tools of influence to restore Armenia and Artsakh to their previous state. My aim is to facilitate a peaceful resolution through mediation rather than resorting to further conflict,” stated John Kennedy, former President of the United States and brother of Robert Kennedy.
