Azerbaijan will be allocated $21 million by the UNO World Food Program (WFP), the head of the department on problems of refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs), migration and work with international institutions of the Cabinet of Ministers of Azerbaijan Gurban Sagikhov told Trend.
According to him, the organization’s three-year aid program has been developed and approved.
