    US Congress Destination of US Congress allocations for separatist
    Nagorno Karabakh has been announced.

    Azerbaijan National NGO Forum received a response to its letter of
    protest sent to the US Congress concerning the financial assistance
    to the so-called Nagorno Karabakh regime, chairman of the National
    NGO Forum Rauf Zeyni said.

    According to him, US charge d'affaires in Azerbaijan Donald Lu said in
    his answering letter that the US government didn't recognize so-called
    "Nagorno Karabakh Republic".

    "The United States pursued this policy for many years and it has not
    been changed. The assistance allocated for Nagorno Karabakh has only
    humanitarian character".

    The letter noted that these allocations were managed by not the
    so-called NKR administration, but by the international NGOs.

    "These resources were spent to the mine-cleaning operations,
    restoration of houses and schools, as well as different humanitarian
    projects, including health in previous years. This year it will
    be spent to the mine-cleaning and water projects. Of course, the
    United States is allocating financial assistance to the internally
    displaced persons of Azerbaijan, who were forced to leave their homes
    as a result of Nagorno Karabakh conflict. These resources are also
    managed by the international NGOs and spent to the mine-cleaning,
    healthcare, restoration of schools and houses".
