ArmInfo. Armenian government has allocated 2,4 bln AMD (more than $8
mln) to finish Lincy Foundation programme in 2008, director of Lincy
Yerevan office Edward Bezoyan said at today’s press-conference.
He also added the necessity of getting additional sums appeared because
of devaluation of American dollar to Armenian dram and implementation
of additional volume of work. The cost of the programme which started
in Armenia in 2006 was $58 mln without additional financing. Bezoyan
assured that all the work is coming to the end. Within the frames of
the programme $16 mln were allocated for construction and repair of
the inter-state and republican roads; $20,9 mln – to repair Yerevan
streets and the rest to repair schools.
