Answer:

Non-developmental Projects

Step-by-step explanation:

Country X requested for and received a loan from the world bank (formerly the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development).

Country X may not (Country X is not allowed to) use the money to finance projects that are unrelated to development.

This stems from the purpose of the World Bank and its funding acts. The World Bank's key function is:

- Lending to the middle-class nations (at relatively low interest rates) and giving to the poorest nations (at no interest rate) who are its members.

Country X hence is either a middle-income country or a low-income country. It may only use the loan to finance projects that aim at improving the quality of human life e.g. health projects, educational projects, environmental projects, etcetera.
