The United States government is allocating 11,5 million dollars in humanitarian aid to meet the needs of the forcibly displaced people from Nagorno-Karabakh, USAID Administrator Samantha Power announced Tuesday during a visit to the Armenian village of Kornidzor.
“It is very difficult to hear and see what these families are going through. Many left their towns and villages under shelling,” she said.
The USAID chief met with medics who told her that many of the forcibly displaced persons have malnutrition.
Power also met with people whose loved ones are missing.
Samantha Power said it is necessary for international monitors and humanitarian organizations to have access to Nagorno-Karabakh to provide assistance to those in need on the ground.
