YEREVAN, JUNE 7, NOYAN TAPAN. Staring June 30, flights from Yerevan's
Zvartnots Airport will be operated in the normal regime. To recap,
since April 10, flights have been operated only at night - from 8:00
pm to 10:30 am in connection with repairs of the airport's runway.
Zvartnots Director Juan Pablo Gechjian told reporters that about
8 mln USD will be spent on asphalt laying this year. Repair of
asphalt cover is being carried out on the last 1,200 meter-section
of the runway. The other sections have been repaired over the past
two years. The airport director found it difficult to indicate the
total amount spent on the runway's asphalt laying. He only said that
40 thousand tons of asphalt has been used.
Asked about his opinion concerning the statement of a NA deputy to
the effect that Zvartnot's manager makes superprofits from this work,
J.P. Gechijian said: "The government did not ask that the exact amount
of investments be indicated in the concessional agreement, it is
required to build an airport in line with international standards. Let
deputies go and see what kind of terminal we are building."
