The RA government's reconstruction program to rebuild Gyumri (known
as Leninakan during the Soviet period), ravaged by an earthquake on
December 7, 1988, has been successfully implemented, said RA Vice
Prime Minister and RA Minister of Territorial Administration Armen
Gevorgyan at today's press conference.
"As for how sufficient it's been, that's another issue," he said,
adding that for that reason, in an outgoing session in 2008, the
Armenian government, in Shirak marz (province), endorsed a new
supplementary program to settle the residential issues of the other
families affected by the earthquake.
"Last year, housing was built in the villages of Lori marz [province],
where 340 families received residences [and] the program is going to
continue. There is the president of the Republic's promise and the
government decision, according to which those responsibilities that
we have assumed with respect to the 7,000 residents in the disaster
zone, will be fulfilled till 2013," affirmed the vice prime minister.
