The State Revenue Committee of Armenia has signed a Memorandum of Cooperation (MOC) with the US Justice Department’s Drug Enforcement Administration.

The MOC was signed by Chairman of the State Revenue Committee of Armenia Eduard Hovhannisyan and Head of Office of the Drug Enforcement Administration for the Middle East William Warren.

The aim of the MOC is to deepen cooperation between the two institutions for the fight against illicit trafficking of drugs, their analogs and precursors, as well as crimes with regard to money laundering arising from those acts of crime.

The signing of the MOC serves as the result of the fruitful cooperation between the Anti-Smuggling Department of the State Revenue Committee of Armenia and the Regional Office of the Drug Enforcement Administration of the US Department of Justice.
