"Working as a US ambassador to Armenia, I did not perform a so-called
anti-Iranian task at all," the outgoing US ambassador to Armenia, John
Ordway, told a final press conference today while speaking about the
construction of the Iran-Armenia gas pipeline.
He said that he had not issued any harshly-worded statements regarding
the gas pipeline. At the same time, he said that US actions concerning
Iran are dictated by the sanctions that stem from the Iran law
approved by Congress which has not been repealed yet. "However, I did
not perform any anti-Iranian task in Armenia during my tenure," John
Ordway said.
