In July, bipartisan members of the Helsinki Commission leadership from the House and Senate and other senior members of Congress visited Armenia to observe for themselves the fruits of Armenia’s democratic and increasingly pro-West orientation. Members observed Armenia’s precarious strategic situation, but also its profound resilience, democratic example in the region, and sociopolitical consensus in favor of a European future.
This hearing is intended to chart out ways that the United States and Congress can support Armenia in continuing its democratic path, securing its sovereignty, finalizing peace and normalizing ties with Azerbaijan and Turkey, and dissuading and deterring Russian malign efforts.
The following witnesses are scheduled to testify:
- Dr. Dan Baer, Senior Vice President for Policy Research at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and former U.S. Ambassador to the OSCE
- Ms. Olesya Vartanyan, South Caucasus Security Expert
- Mr. Tigran Grigoryan, President and founder of the Regional Center for Democracy and Security in Yerevan
