    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ On August 1, 2008, Marie L. Yovanovitch was confirmed
    by the U.S. Senate as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary
    to the Republic of Armenia. She is expected to arrive in Armenia
    in September, U.S. Embassy spokesperson Taguhi Jahukian told
    PanARMENIAN.Net.

    Senate confirmation came after a delay by lawmakers who were displeased
    with Ms. Yavonovitch's refusal to use the term 'genocide' to describe
    the mass slaughter of Armenians at the hands of the Ottoman Empire.

    Prior to her appointment to Armenia, Ms. Yovanovitch was Ambassador of
    the United States of America to the Kyrgyz Republic from 2005 to 2008.
