Minister Oskanian Meets with Leadership of
Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has had a long-standing cooperative
relationship with the Tufts University Fletcher School, in Massachusetts. On
May 29, Fletcher Dean Stephen Bosworth visited the Ministry, accompanied by
Professor Alan Henrikson, and businessman-philanthropist Aso Tavitian who
has sponsored various educational programs associated with Fletcher.
During the meeting, the guests spoke with satisfaction about the cooperation
established years ago between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the
Republic of Armenia and the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy. They also
discussed future programs.
The Minister noted that more than 60 diplomats and civil servants have been
trained at Fletcher, and said this is invaluable for building capacity
within the government.
Following the meeting, Dean Bosworth and Professor Henrikson addressed
Ministry staff in the MFA Tavitian Library. Professor Joyce Barsam, a member
of the Tufts Board of Trustees and a member of the Tavitian Foundation,
accompanied the guests.
