Law

This bill would repeal a 1992 law known as Section 907. That law currently stops the United States from giving direct financial or military help to the government of Azerbaijan because of past conflicts in the region.
If passed, Azerbaijan would be able to receive regular U.S. foreign aid like many other countries. The bill's sponsor, Luna, argues that Azerbaijan is a loyal partner to the U.S. and has recently agreed to a peace deal regarding its borders with Armenia.
While the U.S. has found ways to send some help to Azerbaijan in the past using special yearly waivers, this change would make that support permanent and easier to provide without extra administrative hurdles.
This move signals a shift in U.S. foreign policy toward closer ties with Azerbaijan. It aims to recognize the country's cooperation in the South Caucasus region and its role as a strategic ally.
