Marie Yovanovitch to arrive in Yerevan Sept. 17
The U.S. newly elected Ambassador to Armenia, Ms. Marie Yovanovitch, will arrive in Yerevan on September 17, the U.S. Embassy told PanARMENIAN.Net.
The position has been unfilled since Ambassador John Evans was recalled two years ago by the Bush Administration for recognizing the Armenian Genocide. Another Ambassador-designate, Richard Hoagland, was withdrawn last year after a Senate hold.
The nomination of Ms. Yovanovitch was confirmed in August 2008.
