U.S. Department of State Donates Physical Techniques Equipment to Armenian Police
On March 24, 2006 the United States Department of State donated
approximately $40,000 of physical techniques equipment to the Police of
the Republic of Armenia for the training of Armenian Police officers
at the Police Academy and Police Training Center. U.S. Embassy Charge
d'Affaires Anthony Godfrey opened the donation ceremony, which took
place at the Police Academy.
The physical techniques equipment, which was funded by the Department
of State Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs
(INL), includes gym mats, Redman instructor suits, body opponent bags,
rubber training knives, guns, handcuffs, and boxing bags. The First
Deputy Head of Police accepted the equipment for the Government
of Armenia and presented Ambassador Evans with a Certification of
Gratitude from the Police Academy of the Republic of Armenia.
During the event, Charge d'Affaires Anthony Godfrey stated, "The police
force is the one democratic institution with which the population has
the most contact. That is why it is most important for the police to
change how it is perceived by the population. A fit, well-trained,
professional force gives the people of Armenia -- and visitors --
the impression that Armenia is a country which cares about citizens'
rights and about citizens' safety."
