The government of Armenia, I think, showed itself to have shown some foresight and preparation and has been handling it well.

We do not anticipate submitting a waiver until such time as we see a real improvement in the situation.

We have made clear that nothing will be normal with Azerbaijan after the events of September 19 until we see progress on the peace track.

I think we owe it to the people of Armenia to help them through this difficult situation.

I commend the Administration for its consistent engagement in Azerbaijan and Armenia on the issue of Nagorno-Karabakh.

Thank you for sending a clear message today: God's children are not for sale.

Congress has to do something. A lot of people around here are here to come forward and say we have to do something, and we have to do it right now.

That is why I have introduced this bill, No Illegal Oil from Russia Act.

The intent of the price cap is to hurt Russian profits that are fueling their unjust war while maintaining stable global energy markets.
