"We have seen no progress over the 3 years of activity of the
Commission on Lake Sevan Issues", MP from Heritage Party Larisa
Alaverdyan said at parliament on Tuesday.
Alaverdyan stressed that the Armenian Ministry of Nature Protection
fails to respond adequately to the illegal activities of a number of
ore mining companies. According to her, though the Ministry annually
releases small fish into the lake and has acquired expensive equipment
worth 600 thsd EUR to clear the bottom of the lake from the timber,
the situation remains desperate. "The situation is as follows: the
fish are disappearing from the lake, the water is losing its quality,
while the government positively assesses the relevant bodies' work
every year. Nothing disturbs the Prosecutor's Office to investigate the
facts of disappearance of the fish from Lake Sevan", said Alaverdyan.
