NEW US ENVOY PLEDGES COOPERATION WITH ALL POLITICAL FORCES

17:12 * 13.02.15

The United States’ new ambassador to Armenia on Friday promised to
work with all the political forces in the country to maintain dialogue
with both the ruling authorities and the opposition.

At his first news conference in Yerevan, Richard Mill’s reiterated the
United States’ policy to collaborate with all political leaders, as
well as the civil society sector. The diplomat praised the democracy
level in Armenia, which he said gives the opposition enough freedom
to work and communicate with foreign ambassadors without any hindrans.

Asked how he treats Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan’s Thursday
speech lashing out at the Prosperous Armenia party’s leader, Mr Mills
said he himself is from the state of Louisiana where it is common
for politicians to label one another with different names.
