YEREVAN. - Armenia marked significant progress during the five years
of my absence from the country, said former U.S. Ambassador to Armenia
John Evans at "20 years of Independence in Armenia and the region"
discussion held in Yerevan on Tuesday.
Evans said that progress mainly affected the capital, whereas there
is no tangible progress in regions.
"Maybe five years is not so long for all-round progress but in many
areas there are obvious improvements," he added.
Referring to suspension of Millennium Challenges program in Armenia,
he said that reason was the inappropriate behavior of officials,
as well as the impact events of March 1, 2008.
