ANCA Burbank Commends the City Council and Welcomes the Move
BURBANK The Burbank City Council on Tuesday unanimously voted to recognize Artsakh as an independent republic and at the same time rescinded the Burbank-Hadrut Friendship City status while the city remains under the illegal Azerbaijani occupation.
The Armenian National Committee of America Burbank chapter representing the policy priorities of the city’s Armenian-American residents has been advocating for the recognition of Artsakh Republic for months going back to the Azerbaijani-Turkish aggression against Armenia and Artsakh in September 2020.
“We thank the Burbank city council and the residents of Burbank for their continued strong support for the people of Artsakh in their struggle for freedom and self-determination,” said ANCA-Burbank chairman Sarkis Simonian.
