“The German government will provide €152 million in support to Armenia. This is the main outcome we achieved during the joint session of the Armenia-Germany Intergovernmental Commission in Berlin, which I am leading on the Armenian side. Of the €152 million, €18 million will be provided as a grant, while €134 million will be low-interest loans, with interest rates just above zero,” he said in a statement.
