Armenian fish farmers continue to complain that they cannot sell their products. As a result of restrictions on the Russian side, fish is currently not exported to the Russian market, it is not sold in the domestic market, as a result, fish farmers have accumulated debts of millions and continue to complain.

Recently, they held a protest near the Government building, demanded a meeting with the Deputy Prime Minister, but no meeting took place.

Armen Karapetyan, a member of the Union of Fish Breeders according to them, they will wait until Thursday, after that they will do what they have to do.

“At the moment, we are in a state of waiting until this Thursday, the next meeting of the Government, then it will be clear whether there is a reaction from their side or not.”

We gave them our support plan, what needs to be done so that we can extend it for some time. It is true that I consider this a temporary solution, but if it does not happen, we will not delay.

Aid money came from all over the world, but it did not reach us, we only paid taxes and were persecuted. The government was given money to give us, but now it is gone. They pay their bonuses on time, receive their bonuses, and then go on vacation. More than 8 million premiums have been written to governorates and the deputy prime minister, isn’t this a good thing? of 168.am said Armen Karapetyan in a conversation with

He mentioned that if the government is unable to answer the fish farmers’ questions today, the Europeans will answer their questions during the “COP-17” to be held in Armenia in October.

“Then you will hear the voice. If the problem solver is one person, we should meet with him. We have to understand, if they gave something to transfer to us, why didn’t they transfer at least a part of it? They write on the paper that we will give a subsidy, but by the 1st of the month, the subsidy disappears, aren’t we cattle?” added our interlocutor.

He also expressed hope that all questions will be answered on Thursday, for example, why was the subsidy given until August 1?

“This is the same as saying: I give you 1 billion dollars, but you have to go to New York and come back in half an hour. If you can’t go and come back, I can promise 1 trillion more. What is the meaning of this, their brain works in a different way, as they say, let it end well. Everyone has crossed those “red lines”, there is no more room for us not to do debt. Apart from the Azerbaijani tuman, there is no other currency in the world that we have not made a debt with. What we have and don’t have, we have sold, starting with gold,” emphasized Armen Karapetyan.

It should be noted that since May, the Russian Federation has imposed restrictions on the import of a number of Armenian products to the Russian market: flowers, fruits and vegetables, and from today on dairy products.
