US Congress House of Representatives committee for military aids adopted a decision to preserve parity in rendering military assistance to Azerbaijan and Armenia.

Though Bush administration proposed increasing the amount of military aid to Azerbaijan by 40% in comparison with Armenia, this proposal was not supported by lower house of the Congress.

The United States will render $62 million to Armenia and $5 million to the alleged "Nagorno Karabakh Republic" in 2007. This amount is $12 million more than that proposed by Bush Administration. However, official Washington decreased the amount of aids rendered to Armenia for $8 million in comparison with last year, APA informs.
