1 / 2

On September 26 the RA NA President Hovik Abrahamyan received Mission Director for Armenia for the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Karen Hilliard.

Congratulating Mrs Hilliard on the occasion of being appointed Mission Director for Armenia for the United States Agency for International Development, Hovik Abrahamyan highlighted and effectively appreciated the activity of the Agency in Armenia. In the NA President’s word, during the twenty-year activity in Armenia the USAID programs have developed and have turned from mere humanitarian assistance into programs of long-term economic development, sustainable social policy and boosting of democratic reforms. Hovik Abrahamyan highly appreciated the USAID-RA NA cooperation and emphasized its continuity, noting that he would do his best in supporting the program.

Karen Hilliard has expressed conviction that from now on the cooperation with the Armenian Parliament will be effective and has noted that her goal is not only to keep the level of the existing cooperation, but also to further develop and deepen it. She has noted that the NA will implement a four-year cooperation program, which is aimed at strengthening parliament capacities, particularly of the standing committees.

At the meeting other issues relating to further cooperation were also discussed.
