The discussions focused on expanding the EBRD's presence in Armenia  through new initiatives, specifically targeting reservoir  construction and the revitalization of secondary cities. The meeting  also served as a preview for the upcoming EBRD Annual Meeting in Riga  (June 5-7), which will feature a dedicated session on Armenia's  investment potential. 

Following the meeting, the parties reaffirmed their commitment to  continuing effective and close cooperation aimed at strengthening  Armenia's economic resilience and consistently advancing its  strategic development agenda.
