Как вы считаете, пойдут ли иностранные банки в Россию и на каких условиях? Достаточно ли для этого гарантий россий­ского правительства или необходимы международные гарантии, например, со стороны группы Всемирного банка?
В ряде резолюций Генеральной Ассамблеи по вопросам раз­вития, в том числе в недавно принятой на ее 53-й сессии резо­люции о трехгодичном обзоре комплексной политики в области оперативной деятельности ООН в целях развития, большое зна­чение придается укреплению сотрудничества между Всемирным банком, региональными банками развития и оперативными программами и фондами ООН. Не могли бы Вы сообщить, что предпринимает Банк в этом направлении?
Благодарю, господин Председатель.
