US Ambassador to Armenia John Evans hailed the signing of a five-year
$235 million Compact between Armenia and the Millennium Challenge
Corporation during the Armenian Assembly's National Banquet on March
27 in Washington, DC.
The Ambassador cautioned however that a country that is found eligible
for MCC funding must continue to remain eligible. Evans noted that one
of the criteria is meeting the MCC standard for ruling justly. In his
prepared remarks, the Ambassador urged Conference participants to join
in helping "Armenia achieve democratic elections in 2007 and 2008."
The National Banquet was part of a major three-day pan-Armenian
Conference hosted by the Assembly, together with the Armenian General
Benevolent Union (AGBU) and the Eastern and Western Dioceses of the
Armenian Church.
