YEREVAN, AUGUST 30, ARMENPRESS: The US Embassy in Armenia said the
U.S. Department of State, via its International Visitor Program,
will host a series of meetings for National Assembly Chairman Artur
Baghdasaryan during the Washington, D.C. portion of his trip to the
United States from August 31 through September 7. During his visit,
Mr. Baghdasaryan will meet with U.S. government officials, as well
as with non-governmental organizations and media outlets.
The State Department has arranged meetings for Mr. Baghdasaryan
with Speaker of the House of Representatives J. Dennis Hastert
(Republican-Illinois), Democratic National Committee Chairman
Howard Dean, and Congressmen Knollenberg (R-MI) and Pallone (D-NJ)
of the Congressional Caucus on Armenian Issues, as well as with
various high-level Department of State, National Security Council,
U.S. Agency for International Development and Millennium Challenge
Corporation officials. The State Department has also arranged for
Mr. Baghdasaryan to give a presentation at the Center for Strategic
and International Studies (CSIS) and to meet with the non-governmental
organization Transparency International.
Launched in 1940, the U.S. Department of State International Visitor
Program seeks to build mutual understanding between the United States
and other nations through carefully designed professional visits to
the U.S. for current and emerging foreign leaders. Through these
encounters, they gain a greater understanding of the cultural and
political society of the United States. Over 180 current and former
heads of government and state and many other distinguished world
leaders in the public and private sectors have participated in the
Department of State's International Visitor Program. We are proud to
now have Mr. Baghdasaryan among the program's alumni.
