/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The United Nations World Food Program (WFP) and
Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) will phase out operation in Azerbaijan
in mid-2008, said Gurban Sadigov, Azerbaijan’s Cabinet of Ministers
officer for refugees, IDPs, migration and international relations.
"Deputy Prime Minister Ali Hasanov has sent a letter to the NRC
head office and asked the organization to join future projects in
Azerbaijan," he noted.
He attributed completion of World Food Program to declining donations
and evaporation of emergency situation concerning internally displaced
persons, APA reports.
