President Serzh Sargsyan received today Patrick Fine, Vice President
for Compact Implementation for the Millennium Challenge Corporation.
The parties stressed the importance of the works conducted in five
years in the framework of the MCC-Armenia program which has been aimed
at the improvement of life standards of the rural beneficiaries in
numerous rural communities, in particular, through the rehabilitation
and development of the irrigation systems in the rural areas of
Armenia and resolution of other vital problems. The President of
Armenia noted that earlier this year he had the opportunity to talk
about the program also at the meeting with the Executive Director
of the MCC Daniel Johaness when the parties jointly underscored the
efficiency of the program.
The Vice President for Compact Implementation for the Millennium
Challenge Corporation noted with satisfaction that among 25 countries
where the MCC is implementing its programs, the best results have been
achieved in Armenia. "Mr. President, I am glad to meet with you at the
conclusion of the initiative which has brought good results. This is
my first visit to Armenia and I am greatly impressed with what I saw.
I've had opportunities to visit many countries and can state that
in this case I see a country which is developing dynamically and
steadily," Patrick Fine said.
President Sargsyan said that Armenia intends to develop its relations
with the United States in all areas and carry on with efficient
cooperation. According to Serzh Sargsyan, a considerable amount
of work has been accomplished in the framework of the MCC, however
there is still much to be done for the development of rural areas,
and efforts on that direction must be continued.
At the meeting, the parties discussed also reforms implemented
in Armenia.
