PRESS RELEASE
16 November 2004
Minister Oskanian Answers Questions by Armenian Mass Media On Colin Powell's
Resignation
Question: Mr. Minister, how would you comment on Colin Powell's
resignation?
Answer: I was sorry to hear of Secretary Powell's resignation. During his
four years tenure, Armenia - US relations have deepened and our agenda has
become more multifaceted.
State Secretary Powell closely followed developments in our region and
wanted conflicts to be resolved and normal relations to be established
between neighbors.
I would like to emphasize Powell's personal contribution to Armenia's
selection for Millennium Challenge Account funding.
We value greatly Secretary Powell's great role in each of these and other
areas. At each of our meetings, it was very clear that Secretary Powell's
deep, multifaceted knowledge, personal integrity, and professional
commitment all come together to better serve all of us who have had the
opportunity and good fortune to work with him.
I am sure that we will continue our efficient cooperation with the new
Secretary of State for the benefit of our two nations.
