    NEW U.S. AMBASSADOR TO ARMENIA TO ARRIVE IN YEREVAN IN SEPTEMBER

    ARKA
    Aug 27, 2008

    YEREVAN, August 27. /ARKA/. The newly appointed U.S. Ambassador
    to Armenia Marie L.Yovanovich is to arrive in Yerevan in mid
    September, U.S. Charge d'Affaires in Armenia Joseph Pennington told
    journalists. The exact date of her arrival is not known yet, he said.

    The nomination of Yovanovich was approved by U.S. Senate on August 1.

    Yovanovich was nominated by the Administration of President
    Bush. Response of the Armenian American lobby to the nomination was
    not unambiguous as in her speech at the External Affairs Committee
    on June 19 Yovanovich evaded calling the 1915 massacre of Armenians
    in Ottoman Empire genocide.
