The airports in the southern part of Armenia are inventoried, Syunik
Region Deputy Governor Ara Dolunts told Armenian News-NEWS.am.
In his words, a delegation from the Armenian General Department of
Civil Aviation (GDCA) was in the Region a short time ago. And on
Wednesday, the ruling Republican Party’s presidential candidate-and
incumbent President-Serzh Sargsyan spoke with the voters at Kajaran
city of Syunik Region and stated that the matter of restoring the
Kapan city airport is being discussed and, moreover, the two mining
companies in the area have expressed their willingness to provide
respective financial assistance.
The GDCA experts visited all civil aviation airports of Syunik Region,
namely, in the Sisian, Goris, Kapan, and Meghri cities.
“The GDCA will inform more precisely about the time periods of the
activities, but there is such plan and we are ready to provide all
support,” Dolunts said.
To note, during the Soviet era flights were conducted from the
aforesaid airports to capital city Yerevan.
