YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 26, NOYAN TAPAN. Possibly, the World Bank (WB) will not allocate funds for repairs and development of irrigation systems in Armenia taking into account the circumstance that rather big sums will be already allocated for this purpose by the Millennium Challenge program. Noyan Tapan correspondent was informed about it by Arusyak Alaverdian, Responsible Person for Irrigation Programs of WB Yerevan Office. He said that RA government should oriente itself, to what sphere funds should be allocated instead, after which WB will determine the issue of giving financing. In A.Alaverdian's opinion, parallel with the Millennium Challenge program a technical assistance program could be also implemented, but RA government, in her words, "is not so willing to take credits for technical assistance."
