YEREVAN, June 21. /ARKA/. On June 28, 2006, the Foreign Relations
Committee, US Senate, is to consider the candidacy of Richard Hoagland
for the post of US Ambassador to Armenia.
Armenian National Committee Of America reports that the Armenian
community is closely following the hearings and possible scenarios
may clarify the US Department of State's policy toward the issue of
the Armenian Genocide.
US-based Armenians believe that the reason for US Ambassador to
Armenia John Evan's recall is the fact that during his speeches in
2004-2005 he qualified the Armenian pogroms in Ottoman Empire in 1915
as Genocide. In his further comments he pointed out that it was his
personal viewpoint, but not the USA's official position.
Since October 16, 2003, Richard Hoagland has been US Ambassador to
Tajikistan.
