The French Department of Hauts-de-Seine will provide the All Armenian
Hayastan Foundation with 500,000 euros to set up a program for
agricultural development in the Tavush region of the Northern Armenia,
Department's President Patrick Devedjian told reporters Friday.
The criteria followed by the Department in choosing partners for
international cooperation include the UN last reports and attention
to the regions where the development is necessary, said Patrick
Devedjian. He said: "Residents in the capital have better living
and development conditions, while the situation in the remote areas
is heavy."
The 500,000 euro grant by the French Department will be a great
contribution for the financing of projects aiming at involvement
of the local residents into the programs to prevent their outflow
from the country. A particular effort will be made towards technical
training and the improvement of production quality.
Within the convention, signed between the French Department of
Hauts-de-Seine and the All Armenian Hayastan Foundation, the Channel
of the Armenian-French Friendship was restored and widened; besides,
various agricultural programs were implemented.
The parties are currently discussing another program to be granted,
mostly paying an attention to the issue of restoration and widening
of the Ayegovit-Vazashen Channel.
