YEREVAN (YERKIR) – Raising the efficiency of the Armenian border
defense proceeds from the interests of the entire international
community, U.S.

Ambassador John Evans stated during the opening ceremony of a new
training center of the Armenian frontier troops.

In his words, the U.S. has been for a long time assisting Armenia in
exercising control of the state borders. “The whole world should be
interested in non-proliferation. For a sovereign state like Armenia
the border defense becomes a priority issue and we are glad to
render assistance in such an important matter,” the U.S. Ambassador
to RA said.
