/PanARMENIAN.Net/ President George Bush will hardly use his power
and will not nominate Richard Hoagland as U.S. Ambassador to Armenia,
bypassing Senate's confirmation, said to a press conference in Yerevan
AAA (Armenian Assembly of America) Regional Director for Armenia and
Nagorno Karabakh Arpi Vartanian.
"Ambassador's absence in Yerevan badly reflects on Armenian-American
relations, moreover the Armenian government has already agreed to
Richard Hoagland's nomination. Here AAA's viewpoint differs from ANCA's
(Armenian National Committee of America) stance. It's all the same
for us who the ambassador will be, since in any case he will express
the policy of U.S. government and the Bush administration. Our goal
is not to change ambassador's candidacy but the general direction of
American foreign policy," underscored Vartanian.
