Armenia to apply again to MCC
Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan announced at the government session today that Washington gave a positive assessment of the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) funded program.
“As all the objectives have been realized, we now have the opportunity to apply to the Millennium Challenge Corporation,” the prime minister said. In his words, corruption risks were indicated as a weakness, but positive changes were recorded in this direction as well. Tigran Sargsyan instructed Finance Minister David Sargsyan to apply again for MCC funding.
The prime minister at the same time said that there is little probability that that Millennium Challenge Corporation will provide finding because a large number of countries filed such applications to MCC.
