State officials today are celebrating a partnership between Kansas
and the government of Armenia.
Since 2003, Kansas has been partnered with Armenia through a national
program that links states with developing nations. Though the history
of Armenia goes back thousands of years, the country has been free
for only 14 years since the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Earlier this year, members of the Kansas National Guard, including
Adjutant General Tod Bunting, traveled to Armenia to visit with
their counterparts.
In April, Governor Sebelius signed a proclamation designating today
as Kansas-Armenian Partnership Day. A ceremony was scheduled for this
morning at the State Defense Building in Topeka.
A delegation from Armenia is expected to come to Kansas in the
coming months.
