SIXTY USA CONGRESSMEN ADDRESSED STATE SECRETARY FOR EXPLANATIONS ABOUT REASON OF USA AMBASSADOR RECALL FROM ARMENIA
Yerevan, May 25. ArmInfo. Sixty American congressmen headed by Edward
Marki, the congressmen from the Chamber of Representatives, sent a
letter to the State Secretary Condoleezza Rice with request to explain
the reason of recall of the USA Ambassador John Evans from Armenia.
As ArmInfo was told in the Armenian National Committee of America,
the letter was sent after the information from the White House about
the assignment of the USA Ambassador to Tajikistan Richard Hogland
a new Ambassador of USA to Armenia. According to the information,
the Ambassador J. Evans will be dismissed after the Senate approves
Hogland's candidacy. The source notes the resignation, presumably,
is a result of last-year remarks of the American diplomat concerning
1915 events, having been recognized by Evans as Armenian Genocide.
Sixty congressmen expressed special anxiety that J. Evan's recall would
become an unprecedented case, undermining the USA image. "We call up
the USA Senate to hold hearings and thoroughly study the reasons for
J. Evan's recall", the Executive Director of ANCA Aram Gasparyan said.
