Armenian Weekly: No aid to Israel without an immediate end to arms sales to Azerbaijan

"Between 2016 and 2022, Israel supplied 69% of Azerbaijan’s weaponry — kamikaze drones, missile systems, cluster munitions — turning Baku into a regional juggernaut. In return, Azerbaijan pumps 40-55% of Israel’s crude oil through the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan pipeline, keeping Tel Aviv’s tanks rolling and its economy humming," notes The Armenian Weekly, one of the main mouthpieces of the Armenian diaspora in the United States.

"Under the 10-year Memorandum of Understanding signed in 2016, the United States gives Israel $3.8 billion in military aid annually — no questions asked — knowing full well that Israeli arms are being traded for oil secured by expelling Christians... Condition every penny of aid to Israel on an immediate, verifiable end to arms sales to Azerbaijan," the newspaper adds.
