    APPOINTMENT OF UK JOINT AMBASSADORS IS AN UNPRECEDENTED CASE IN ARMENIAN DIPLOMATIC PRACTICE

    Yerevan/Mediamax/. Appointment of Joint Ambassadors is an unprecedented
    case in Armenian diplomatic practice.

    "The husband and wife team is appointed in the post of Ambassador
    to Armenia for the first time", Mediamax was told in the Armenian
    Foreign Ministry.

    According to the press release disseminated by the British Embassy
    the day before, Mr. Jonathan James Aves and Ms. Katherine Jane Leach,
    a husband and wife team, were appointed Her Majesty's Joint Ambassadors
    to the Republic of Armenia and they will take up their appointment
    in January 2012.

    Foreign Office employs such practice, and this is not the first case
    when a diplomatic mission is carried out by a husband and wife team,
    Mediamax was told in the British Embassy.

    For the first time, the British Foreign Office appointed the husband
    and wife team in the post of Joint Ambassadors to Zambia in 2008. The
    couple had worked in the position of Vice -Ambassador in Bratislava
    before. At that, their work was carried out in 4- month rotation
    system, the same system due to be realized in Armenia. The practice
    is used by the Foreign Office in appointing high-ranking positions
    as well.

    "Appointment of Joint Ambassadors will contribute to the development
    of Armenian-British relations.

    Mr. Jonathan James Aves and Ms. Katherine Jane Leach have a great
    desire to make their own contribution to this process", Mediamax was
    informed in the British Embassy.
