NO AMBASSADOR FOR ARMENIA
The Moscow Times, Russia
Aug 7, 2006
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee is putting
off until September consideration of career diplomat Richard Hoagland
as ambassador to Armenia.
The delay stems from objections by some senators to U.S. President
George W. Bush’s administration’s refusal to classify the deaths of
1.5 million Armenians in 1915 as “genocide.” (AP)
