		<description><![CDATA[Three European credit agencies have backed out of Turkey&#8217;s massive Ilisu dam project. Turkey claims it will back the 1200 megawatt dam with its own money despite local and international protest over its inability to meet World Bank Standards on human rights, cultural heritage and the environment.
