YEREVAN. – Armenian ecologists plan to organize a protest near
government building on Thursday demanding that the government stop
construction works near Trchkan waterfall.

“The Ministry of Nature Protection seems not to pay due attention to
the problem. In this context, “Save Trchkan Waterfall” initiative
raises the question of waterfall which is endangered and takes
concrete steps to prevent construction of hydro power plant. We
demand an immediate suspension of construction works in Trchkan,”
the statement reads.
