YEREVAN. – Armenia assumed an action plan, which may help improve Armenia’s indicators which are observed by the Millennium Challenge Corporation [Program] (MCC) of the United States.

US Ambassador John Heffern stated the aforesaid on Friday, while addressing the Open Government Partnership-Armenia international conference. 

And during a briefing with news reporters, the American diplomat noted that the conducting of anticorruption activities is a key indicator that would help improve Armenia’s progress. Heffern said Armenia has not yet reached the necessary threshold in this respect, but it is very close to it. 

He added that the steps, which are taken along the lines of the Open Government Partnership initiative, can contribute to the improvement of Armenia’s indicators which are taken into account by MCC, since these steps aim to enhance transparency and openness.

As per John Heffern, Armenia’s commitments before the Open Government Partnership program are impressive.
