FORMER AMERICAN AMBASSADOR EXPRESSES THANKS
TO THE CATHOLICOS
The Ambassador of the United States to Lebanon, Jeffrey Feltman, had visited
His Holiness Aram I prior to his departure from Lebanon at the end of the
term to thank the Catholicos and bid him farewell.
In a personal note addressed to the Armenian Pontiff recently, the former
Ambassador once again expressed his "gratitude for [the Pontiff's]
friendship and wisdom" with the expectation that the contacts will continue
in Washington, where his new appointment is. The Ambassador also expresses
his well wishes for the Armenian community of Lebanon.
Ambassador Feltman, who served in Lebanon for about four years, has now
taken up a more responsible post in the State Department in Washington as
the first deputy to the state secretary's assistant on the Near East.
