On the recordJune 8, 1995
I rise to reiterate my strong support for the Humanitarian Aid Corridor Act, of which I am an original co-sponsor. Those who support this portion of H.R. 1561 believe in the integrity of the United States, and are sensitive to preserving America's credibility abroad. That credibility is linked to effectively carrying out policies of humanitarian assistance. U.S. humanitarian assistance must be allowed to be delivered to those countries in need all over the world. Specifically, this legislation will address situations such as that found in Armenia, where a Turkish blockade is preventing our aid from being delivered. It is essential that United States aid be allowed to flow unhindered into Armenia. I urge my colleagues to support the Humanitarian Aid Corridor Act.
