Looks Forward to Expanded Cooperation with New U.S. Administration
WASHINGTON, DC - NKR President Bako Sahakian congratulated the U.S.
President-elect Barack Obama on his election victory, calling it an
`epoch-making event both in American history and for the world
democracy."
In his November 6 letter, President Sahakian highly appreciated the
ongoing American economic assistance to Nagorno Karabakh and the
U.S. mediation efforts as co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group. Bako
Sahakian expressed confidence that under the new Administration `the
ties between the two countries will become much stronger and more
diversified'.
Elected the 44th president of the United States, Barack Obama has
advocated for further deepening of the U.S.-Armenia ties and for
formal recognition of the 1915 Armenian Genocide. Mr. Obama also
called for a peaceful resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh (Artsakh)
conflict in a way `agreeable to all parties, and based upon
America's founding commitment to the principles of democracy and
self-determination'.
