Armenia's foreign ministry suspends duties of UNICEF Representative
The Armenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has suspended duties of UNICEF’s Representative to Armenia Marianne Clark-Hattingh, the ministry spokesperson Anna Naghdalyan told media. In her words, the decision was made due to “failures in implementing her mandate and non-cooperative conduct.”
As reported earlier, Marianne Clark-Hattingh has left Armenia last night, after serving in her position for 8 months.
“The shortcomings of UNICEF Representative Marin Clark-Hatting in the implementation of her mandate and the non-cooperative work were problematic for the Armenian side, so the Armenian government decided to terminate her duties as UNICEF Representative in the Republic of Armenia,” Naghdalyan said.
She added the decision was made known to the UN Resident Coordinator and UNICEF representatives.
