NEW US AMBASSADORS TO ARMENIA AND TAJIKISTAN TO BE APPOINTED SOON
Yerevan, May 24. ArmInfo. The US Senate will discuss the issue of
appointing Richard Hogland, current US Ambassador to Tajikistan,
in Armenia and to appoint Tracy Ann Jackobson, Deputy US Ambassador
to Latvia, as US Ambassador to Tajikistan.
The sources close to the foreign political circles in Armenia and
Tajikistan informed that the candidacies for the positions of the
ambassadors will be approved after the voting at the Senate. The new
appointments are expected to take place this summer.
The Armenian sources give various comments to the coming resignation of
John Evans, current US Ambassador to Armenia. Some of them condition
the early rotation by the speech of Mr. Evans at the meeting with the
Armenian community of San Francisco in the February of 2005. Evans
emphasized the importance of "recognizing the Armenian genocide" in
his speech. According to another version, Mr. Evans failed to avert
the growing political and economic influence of Russia in Armenia.
