Office of Defense Cooperation hosts graduates of IMET program

On the evening of 30 September, in the US Embassy’s atrium, the Ambassador and the Office of Defense Cooperation (ODC) hosted a reception for graduates of the ODC’s International Military Education and Training (IMET) program.

The IMET program has spent nearly 8 million dollars to train 189 officers, sergeants, and civilians in the United States at military courses. Many of these graduates have gone on to represent Armenia in critical positions of responsibility both abroad and internally. IMET graduates range from sergeants and English language instructors to generals and attachés and liaison officers in foreign countries.
