Yerevan, 9 March: Armenian-US relations have considerably “strengthened
and expanded” over the past five years, Armenian ambassador to the
USA Arman Kirakosyan has said in his farewell address to the USA’s
Armenian community.

Kirakosyan’s tenure as the Armenian ambassador in Washington will
expire in late March and he will return to Yerevan.

“The proof of the quality of our bilateral relations can be the
fact that today Armenia is a more stable, dynamically developing and
confident country than it was five years ago,” the Armenian diplomat
said. Kirakosyan said that Armenia and the USA are continuing the
political dialogue at the highest level, regularly consulting each
other on security issues and discussing problems of bilateral,
regional and global importance.

The Armenian ambassador stressed that economic and trade relations
have always been in the centre of his attention. Kirakosyan pointed
out that while in 1999 Armenian export to the USA amounted to 15.2m
dollars, in 2004 this figure was 46.1m dollars.
