I feel privileged and honored to represent the United Nations in
Armenia and I am excited to mark the 20th anniversary of the United Nations
presence in the country. As part of the celebrations of this milestone, I am
delighted to present this photo album - “20 Years: United Nations in
Armenia”.It is hard and challenging to capture the value we bring to bear and the
strength of our partnerships in a foreword but I hope that the photo album
will speak many thousands of words to each of you as you browse through
its pages.
I cannot emphasize enough the significance the United Nations places
upon its partnerships with the various actors in the Armenian society.
Strategic collaboration with the Government, the private sector, academia,
NGOs and the wider civil society has been instrumental in demonstrating
our role as an impartial facilitator and promoter of Armenia’s transition
towards a functional democracy and market economy. Over the years joint-
ly with the national stakeholders and other partners the United Nations has
delivered innumerable benefits for the country and its citizens with the
transparency, integrity and neutrality that are hallmarks of our work.
We have contributed towards the advancement of sustainable human
development and achievement of the nationalized Millennium
Development Goals through enhancing state capacity, initiating and sup-
porting profound legislative reforms and strengthening social fabric and the
country’s resilience.
The United Nations is well positioned and recognized as a key and
strategic development partner and the United Nations Agencies, Funds and
Programs enjoy high level of trust and respect for their coherent and harmo-
nized support towards advancing sustainable development. Based on the
current spirit of partnership, I am sure this trend will continue into the future
and we will jointly witness the successful advancement of the modern
Armenian state!

I am delighted to extend my sincere congratulations to the UN system
in Armenia on the occasion of publishing the photo album titled 20 Years:
United Nations in Armenia . This is a fascinating chronicle, depicting the
profound contribution of the United Nations operation over the past 20
years towards establishing the foundations of independent statehood and
building market-based economy and functional democracy.
The United Nations in Armenia has positioned itself as a credible and
trusted partner and has meaningfully supported Government s efforts
towards prosperity and sustainable development. The work of the United
Nations reaches every corner of the national development discourse, affects
our lives and makes the world a better place.
The Government of Armenia is profoundly thankful and appreciative
of the strategic, relevant and targeted assistance provided by the UN and we
would like to acknowledge the indispensible contribution of the organiza-
tion towards the successful completion of the social transformation process.
Cooperation with the United Nations is essential in implementation of our
reform agenda.
Having gained membership in the most reputable inter-governmental
organization, bounded by the principles of the United Nations Charter,
considering the role of the UN in human development as irreplaceable,
Armenia brought its contribution to the comprehensive work of the
Organization and actively continues to do so in addressing numerous com-
mon challenges facing the international community. We have committed to
Millennium Development Goals. Partnering with the United Nations and
strongly supporting its operation in the country, we simultaneously drew
from the varied pool of knowledge, experience and technology of the
United Nations family of nations for the benefit of Armenia.
Using this opportunity, I would like to thank the entire United Nations
staff for their commitment, dedication, hard work and substantive contribu-
tion to the solution of problems that Armenia faced during its 20 years of
independence.
Tigran Sargsyan Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia

Armenia work on implementing the UN Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF), which is
based on Armenian national priorities. September, 2000 - UN, New York
