Hearings on Kristina Kvien, the candidate for the new US Ambassador to Armenia, will begin today at the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations.

The Armenian Center for American Studies informs that hearings will be held on the same day also regarding the candidacy of Lynne Tracy, the serving US Ambassador to Armenia, who is President Joe Biden's candidate for the position of the new US Ambassador to Russia.

If their candidacies are approved, Tracy will leave Yerevan for Moscow, and Kvien will arrive in Yerevan already in January.
