    YEREVAN, MARCH 29, ARMENPRESS. The ombudsman office signed on March
    29 memorandum of mutual understanding with the USAID. According
    to the memorandum, the USAID will provide technical assistance for
    strengthening the institutional capacities of the office. Ombudsman
    Karen Andreasyan said as a result the services of the office provided
    to citizens especially in provinces will be improved.

    Director of the USAID Armenia Office Jatinder Cheema said the activity
    of the ombudsman"s office is quite extended and their contribution
    is quite modest. "We greatly highlight the role of formation of civil
    society," she said.

    U.S. ambassador to Armenia John Heffern stressed that Armenian-American
    relations are quite inclusive. "The real partnership is based on
    values and the values protected by this office are serious ground
    for cooperation," Heffern said.
