                       Monday, February 25, 2019

  Ms. FOXX of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, I rise today to join with 
the Republic of Azerbaijan in its commemoration of the Khojaly Tragedy, 
also known as the Khojaly Massacre.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in remembering the town and people of 
Khojaly who died on those fateful days and in offering our deepest 
condolences to Azerbaijan on this tragic anniversary.
  In doing so, we remember the 613 Azerbaijani men, women, and children 
killed in Khojaly on February 25 and 26, 1992. The Government of 
Azerbaijan continues to act as a valuable partner of the United States 
and serves as a bulwark against America's adversaries in the region. We 
solemnly remember this anniversary and honor the lives lost.
