    of a UNDP developed program to help boost local rural communities,
    Russian ambassador to Armenia, Ivan Volynkin, said in an interview
    with Sputnik Armenia radio station.

    Under a relating agreement signed in Yerevan on March 18 the Russian
    Federation will provide $5 million to UNDP that will be used to finance
    development projects in 45 rural communities in Tavush region, the

    The ambassador specified that the money will be used to build four
    stations of agricultural machinery, about 90 energy- and water-saving
