The US does not threaten, it just warns Armenia
15.09.2006 12:43

`We are actively working with RA Government and civil society to have
the upcoming elections be free and fair as possible,’ US Deputy
Assistant Secretary of State on Europe and Eurasia Matthew Bryza told
MEDIAMAX agency.
`I’m not about to come forth with any threats connected with the
Millennium Challenge Fund. However, the reality is that we take as a
basis the evaluations of the World Bank and the Freedom House. It is
theoretically possible that these evaluations will change if the
elections are too problematic and Armenia will no more correspond to
the Fund’s criteria. In this case we’ll be ready to suspend the
program. This is not a threat, I’m just establishing the fact. Out
objective is to do everything to avoid the slightest possibility of
this kind of scenario,’ Matthew Bryza said.
