The newspaper reports that, at his meeting with his Russian
counterpart, Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan asked him for
a US $2b credit.

His request may soon be satisfied by means of EurAsEC, but with only
US $1b to be allocated.

The Armenian premier explained that Armenia needs the funds for
implementing all-important projects, such as the construction of the
North-South highway and infrastructure development.

The newspaper recalls that the EurAsEC created a US $10bn fund.

Belarus recently asked for US $3bn, but its request was not fully
satisfied. The country received part of the funds, with the rest
promised for the future.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
