    Yerevan. INTERFAX - Armenia expects to receive $700 million in aid
    from the United States in 2004-2008 under the Challenges of the
    Century program, Armenia's Finance Minister Vardan Khachatryan said
    on Thursday.

    Armenia hopes to receive $100 million of the aid before the end
    of 2004.

    The government is currently developing specific projects in order to
    receive this money. It is anticipated that the money will be used in
    education, healthcare and social services, and to rebuild the country's
    infrastructure, such as irrigation systems and rural area roads.

    Armenia also expects to receive $20 million - $25 million from the
    World Bank under a program to fight poverty, Khachatryan said.
