/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Millennium Challenge Account implementation in
Armenia may suffer from imposition of emergency rule, U.S. Secretary
of State Condoleezza Rice said when addressing the House appropriations
subcommittee hearing on the State Department’s budget.

Rice said that the state of emergency in Armenia, imposed recently
