The RA government is currently discussing 89 investment projects with a volume of 2.7 billion dollars. RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan announced this during the press conference.

According to him, 42 of these projects, with a volume of 774 million, are in various stages of implementation, while others are being discussed. 

Pashinyan also stated that in February of this year, compared to the same period in 2018, the volume of mortgage lending in Armenia increased by 100 percent, which Pashinyan connects with the programs implemented by his government.

“Within the framework of these programs, the increase was 145 percent, and as of today, the volume of lending in the country has increased by 30 percent. According to experts, this is a huge increase,” he said.

Pashinyan predicted that in the near future there will be an increase in the construction sector, which in turn will lead to the creation of new jobs.

“This is a very important index that will lead to the reduction of unemployment and the opening of new jobs,” the RA Prime Minister added.
