02:46 pm 22 March, 2006

Today the US Ambassador to Armenia John Evans officially gave Armen
Haroutyunyan, the commander of the RA frontier troops, the keys of the
reconstructed center of RA frontier troops in Yerevan. The US Embassy
has spent 130 thousand USD for the reconstruction of the building for
the last year. The reconstruction was carried out within the framework
of the program `Combat Against Drugs and Law Enforcement Cooperation’.

The US Ambassador to Armenia John Evans explained the interest of the
US Embassy in the reconstruction of the educational center, `It is not
a secret that there are dangerous people who try to traffic dangerous
goods. I mean weapons of mass destruction, trafficking of people, as
well as smuggling. The investments made by the Embassy proceed from
the interests of Armenia. Giving the center a reconstructed building
we wish the RA frontier troops success’, the Ambassador said in his
speech.

According to the commander of the RA frontier troops Armen
Haroutyunyan, the investments of the RA Government contribute to the
security of the RA state borders.
