ARMENIA's GREENS DEMAND PUNISHMENT OF OFFICIALS
YEREVAN, JULY 24. ARMINFO. A number of Armenian environmental organizations demand that the current and former mayors of Yerevan, former chief architect, as well as Government officials, who contributed to mass destruction of green zones in Yerevan, be held responsible.
At his press conference, the representative of the Social Ecological Party of Armenia Armen Dovlatyan stated that environmental organizations demand that the RA Government and Yerevan Municipality put an end to all illegal and "Legal" allotments of lands for construction in Yerevan's green zones.
They also demand the restoration of the greenery destroyed as a result of construction. According to Dovlatyan, the forests in Nork are deliberately being destroyed for the purpose of further construction there. He said that some of the forests are no longer under the jurisdiction of the "ArmForest" CJSC, as construction is not allowed in territories under the jurisdiction of the "ArmForest" CJSC.
Dovlatyan stated that over 1,500 of 2,000 hectares of Yerevan's green zones have been destroyed. He stressed that over 1,000 hectares were destroyed in 1995-2003. "If the destruction of Yerevan's green zones continues, the capital will turn from semi-desert into a desert, which will affect the population's health," he said.
