    In the evening of January 28 the President of Armenia, Serzh Sargsyan,
    participated in the solemn opening ceremony of the World Economic Forum
    in Davos, following which president and founder of the Forum Claus

    President Sargsyan also participated in the reception organized by
    Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin.

    This morning President Serzh Sargsyan started his bilateral meetings
    in Davos.

    The Armenian President had a meeting with the Executive Director of
    the International Atomic Energy Agency Muhammed El Baradey. During
    the meeting the parties highly appreciated the current level of
    cooperation between the International Atomic Energy Agency and the
    Republic of Armenia.

    The parties discussed issues related to the construction of a new
    nuclear power plant in Armenia. Muhammed El Baradey rated high the
    steps taken by the Armenian authorities in the direction of building a
    new energy unit and expressed willingness to provide expert assistance
    at different stages of program implementation. The Executive Director
    of the International Atomic Energy Agency also hailed the steps
    the Armenian authorities took to raise the security of the Metsamor
    Nuclear Power Plant.

    For his part, President Sargsyan thanked Muhammed El Baradey for

    coordinating the efforts of international donors in this direction
    and for the advice.

    President Serzh Sargsyan had a meeting with the President of the Asian
    Development Bank Haruhiko Kuroda. Serzh Sargsyan expressed gratitude
    to the President of the Asian Development Bank for implementation
    of joint programs, assessing those as effective. President Sargsyan
    expressed satisfaction with the assistance the Bank has provided to
    our country in the fields of governance and infrastructure development
    and expressed hope that the cooperation will continue in the future.

    Haruhiko Kuroda, in turn, rated high the steps taken by the Armenian
    authorities in the sphere of state governance and noted that the Asian
    Development Bank is interested in developing long-term partnership
    relations with the Republic of Armenia, attaching importance to
    the combination of all existing tools to promote the development
    of Armenia.
