ANCA INVITES US SECRETARY OF STATE DISCUSS ARMENIAN POLICY
ARKA
April 9, 2008
YEREVAN, April 9. /ARKA/. The Armenian National Committee of America
(ANCA) has invited US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to discuss
the US policy to Armenia, ANCA press service reports.
In their letter to Rice, ANCA members express their deep concern
regarding the Bush Administration's seven-year record of largely
counterproductive, frequently unfriendly, and, at times, antagonistic
policies toward Armenia and the Armenian American community.
The April 4th letter, signed by ANCA Chairman Ken Hachikian, listed
thirteen areas in which the President and his Administration fell short
of both their own commitments and our nation's basic human rights
standards, retreated from America's historic commitment to Armenia,
and strained - through a series of ill-advised policies and often
hostile actions - the enduring ties that have long bound together
the American and Armenian peoples.
Over the course of the past seven years, the ANCA has repeatedly
requested, to no avail, the opportunity to meet with the President and
his Secretary of State to discuss these and other issues of concern
to Armenian Americans.
