YEREVAN, JUNE 21, ARMENPRESS. 6 billion 342 million 503 thousand drams will be allocated from the 2022 budget of Yerevan for the purchase of 15 trolleybuses and 150 buses, Mayor of Yerevan Hrachya Sargsyan said at the Yerevan City Council session today.

“By the end of 2023, the problems in the transportation system will be solved by 70-80%. Now we are making legislative amendments in order to engage private companies in the process of transport operation. The draft is ready, and that amendment will happen this year. It will allow us to announce tender for acquiring new, additional rolling stock”, the Mayor said, adding that 87 12-meter buses will be in Yerevan in March-April 2023.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
