On December 25 President Serzh Sargsyan signed an order on
establishment of a Commission on issues of Lake Sevan. The order sets
the structure of the Commission.
Vladimir Movsisyan, Executive Director of the Forest Reforestation and
Development Fund has been appointed President of the Commission. Yuri
Javadyan, Director of the Hayjrnakhagits Institute is the Vice
President.
Today the President of the Republic held working consultations with
members of the Commission.
Noting that the consultations are aimed at launching the activity of
the Commission and coordinating its principles, President Sargsyan
said: "I do not consider it necessary to dwell on the issue of
importance of Lake Sevan for Armenia. The issues connected with Sevan
are of vital importance for us. It is directly or indirectly linked to
a number of spheres - environmental protection, agriculture, energy,
fish breeding, drinking water, etc. It's easier to say what it is
not connected with.
Without any exaggeration, Sevan is one of the most valuable resources
of Armenia, and its importance will only be growing during the years
to come.
We must be able to properly preserve and develop this gift of
nature. On the other hand, we should be able to make a reasonable
and full use of it. It is our duty.
I should note with20appreciation that a great work has been done in
the direction of protecting Sevan over the past ten years. Today we
must make greater efforts to solve the issues Sevan faces. I think
the Commission is going to become a powerful engine of it. These are
my expectations. We must be able to achieve essential results in this
direction in 2009."
The President of the Republic pointed to several issues that should
be the main task of the Commission. He said it's necessary to control
all kinds of economic activity that can have a negative influence on
the ecosystem of the lake.
President of the Commission, Executive Director of the Forest
Reforestation and Development Fund Vladimir Movsisyan said the
establishment of such commission speaks about the resoluteness of
the Armenian authorities to solve the existing problems. According
to Vladimir Movsisyan, members of the Commission are professionals,
who have the experience and ability to solve the issues.
