Deputy Speaker of Parliament Lena Nazaryan, together with fellow party members from the ruling My Step bloc Mary Galstyan, Maria Karapetyan, Varazdat Karapetyan and Mikayel Zolyan have met with a group of residents from the towns of Jermuk, Gndevaz and Kechut who are protesting against a possible re-launch of the Amulsar mine operations and are keeping the roads leading to the site blocked.
“We discussed the existing situation, the government’s implemented and ongoing actions, we exchanged ideas regarding possible ways of solution, were informed about the resident’s questions, concerns and problems, which we will discuss with our colleagues in the government. The meetings will be continuous,” Nazaryan stated.
While discussions proceed, the road blocks will stay in place.
