    ARMENIA MUST CONTINUE REFORMS TO REDUCE POVERTY

    ARKA News Agency, Armenia
    Sept 26 2006

    YEREVAN, September 26. /ARKA/. Armenia intends to continue reforms
    to reduce poverty in the country, RA Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan
    stated at the 61st UN General Assembly in New York, USA.

    According to him, like other countries, Armenia has the tasks of
    reducing poverty and overcoming despair, which remain the saddest
    and dangerous challenges to the world.

    Oskanyan stated that large-scale reforms in Armenia inspire hopes.

    They are irreversible and are producing appreciable results.

    According to the Minister, the country will continue reforms to seal
    the success achieved over the last 15 years - progress in legislative
    and administrative spheres, open and liberal economy and two-digit
    economic growth.

    Minister Oskanyan said that inspired by this year's progress, Armenia
    decided to implement a consistent policy of poverty reduction in its
    rural areas.

    He pointed out that to achieve these goals Armenia will apply to
    international organizations and friendly governments and, along
    with the Armenian Diaspora's traditional generosity, will start the
    construction and restoration of infrastructures, which are of vital
    importance for the facilitation of economic development.

    The program of poverty reduction in Armenia's rural areas is an
    all-important component of the Strategic Program of Poverty Reduction,
    which is the principal component of the Armenian Government's
    activities.
