YEREVAN, April 9. /ARKA/. The Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) has invited US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to discuss the US policy to Armenia, ANCA press service reports.
In their letter to Rice, ANCA members express their deep concern regarding the Bush Administration's seven-year record of largely counterproductive, frequently unfriendly, and, at times, antagonistic policies toward Armenia and the Armenian American community.
The April 4th letter, signed by ANCA Chairman Ken Hachikian, listed thirteen areas in which the President and his Administration fell short of both their own commitments and our nation's basic human rights standards, retreated from America's historic commitment to Armenia, and strained - through a series of ill-advised policies and often hostile actions - the enduring ties that have long bound together the American and Armenian peoples.
Over the course of the past seven years, the ANCA has repeatedly requested, to no avail, the opportunity to meet with the President and his Secretary of State to discuss these and other issues of concern to Armenian Americans. –0--
