    USAID Senior Deputy Assistant Administrator for Europe and Eurasia
    Roberta Mahoney arrived in Armenia on a four-day working visit,
    during which she met with representatives of the Armenian government,
    private sector, partner organizations and the Diaspora.

    The parties discussed U.S.-Armenia bilateral relations, USAID
    assistance programs in the areas of democracy, economic growth,
    health and social reform, and Armenia's development challenges.

    Ms. Mahoney visited several USAID-supported projects in Yerevan,
    including the nearly established Microsoft Innovation Center and the
    Women's Support Center which provides services for victims of domestic
    violence and their families, the press service of the U.S. embassy
    in Armenia reported.

    SDAA Mahoney's visit highlighted USAID's nearly two decades of
    strong partnership with Armenia. The U.S. Government will provide $27
    million assistance to Armenia this year aimed at reducing poverty,
    improving rule of law, providing better access to health care and
    social benefits, and strengthening private sector and infrastructure.
