    US-ARMENIA JOINT ECONOMIC TASKFORCE

    US Department of State, DC
    http://www.state.gov/r/pa/prs/ps/2007/oct/93978 .htm
    Oct 23 2007

    We welcomed Armenian Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan and his delegation
    for the annual US-Armenia Joint Economic Taskforce (USATF) today.

    Prime Minister Sargsyan met with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice
    and Under Secretary of State for Economic Affairs Reuben Jeffrey.

    The USATF was formed in 2000 and meets annually to further economic
    cooperation and advance economic and market reforms in Armenia. The
    task force is an open forum used by both countries to discuss issues
    of concern and interest. It also provides the opportunity to check
    progress in certain areas and clarify priorities for moving forward.

    It produces an action plan that is used to tailor assistance to
    Armenia from the United States Government, through the Office of
    the Coordinator of Europe and Eurasia at the Department of State. An
    aviation agreement was signed prior to the meeting which was co-chaired
    by Thomas C. Adams, Coordinator for Assistance to Europe and Eurasia
    and Vardan Khachatryan, Armenian Minister of Finance and Economy. This
    agreement will enhance our cooperation in civil aviation security, and
    will clarify the framework for effective communication during potential
    crises and allow for assistance in the event of an aviation accident.
