U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi condemned what she called “deadly attacks” on Armenian territory by Azerbaijan after a meeting on Sunday with Armenian officials in Yerevan.
Pelosi, the first speaker to visit the southern Caucasian nation, spoke at a press conference with her Armenian counterpart. Her characterization of events was rejected by Azerbaijan.
Her visit, less than eight weeks before U.S. midterm elections in which Pelosi’s Democratic Party’s majority in the House is at risk, was part of a trip that also took her to the G-7 Speakers Summit in Berlin.
