YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 30, ARMENPRESS. The Government of Armenia will provide 13,5 billion drams to the Republic of Artsakh in financial assistance, from which 1,2 billion will be directed for the program of compensating utility expenses of residents and the 12,2 billion will be allocated as an inter-state loan.

Finance Minister of Armenia Tigran Khachatryan said this is the fourth time that the government is allocating financial support to Artsakh – since 2020 nearly 100 billion drams in assistance was provided to Artsakh by the Armenian government.

The inter-state loan, given with a 0,001% interest rate with a repayment time by January 1, 2025 –  is provided for covering salaries, benefits, pensions, healthcare expenses and bonds.

Emil Lazarian: “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
