/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Richard Hoagland's nomination has been only approved
by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. The final decision will
be taken by the Senate, ARF Bureau's Hay Dat and Political Office
Director Kiro Manoian told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. In his words,
Hoagland's chances in the Senate are 50/50.
Even if the Senate approves an Ambassador who denies the Armenian
Genocide it will be not the end of the world. However I suppose that
the Senators will voice opinion and will urge the State Department to
recognize the Armenian Genocide or consider a new designation. It may
happen that the U.S. will remain without an Ambassador to Armenia for
a while, but to my mind, it's inadmissible for the United States,
since the Bush Administration needs close ties with Armenia,"
Manoian emphasized.
