Today RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan had a meeting with members
of the Ecological Public Alliance to discuss environmental issues,
particularly the issues of Armenia’s stable development, the urban
development and ecological situation in Yerevan, issues of Lake
Sevan, preservation of the biodiversity of Armenia, and questions
connected with protected areas and forests. Representatives of the
NGOs noted that all the above-mentioned issues should be considered
in the context of stable development and solutions should be found
within the framework of Armenia’s commitments of stable development.
Members of the Ecological Public Alliance thanked the Prime Minister
for paying consistent attention to ecological issues and discussing
those with NGOs and for the willingness to find joint solutions,
noting that up until now most of those urgent issues have emerged as
a result of ineffective authorities-NGOs cooperation.
The NGO representatives agreed that the numerous problems of the
sphere can be solved in case active work is done in the direction
of system changes, rule of law and reinforcement of the scientific
bases of governance.
