/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The bill on granting a $500 million loan to Armenia
will be brought to the Russian Duma floor in the near future, Russia’s
Prime Minister said.
`I hope the procedure will be carried out within shortest terms, since
it demands amendments in the state budget,’ Vladimir Putin said during
a meeting with Armenian PM Tigran Sargsyan.
Thanking his Russian counterpart, PM Sargsyan said that the aid will
mitigate the consequences of the global financial crisis.
`I am confident that these funds will also serve thousands of
enterprises functioning with Russian capital. We will create a
favorable macroeconomic atmosphere for them,’ he said.
