With the construction of kiosks going on in Yerevan~Rs Mashtots Park,
the policeman maintaining surveillance over the area have cordoned
it off not to allow anyone to get into the construction park.
Our correspondent reported from the scene that the exterior
construction is now nearing the end.
A crowd of people protesting against the construction work have
gathered near the garden. Armenian writer and publicist Meruzhan
Ter-Gulyanyan is also said to be among them.
The environmental group struggling for the preservation of the park's
green lands had earlier launched a campaign to protect the mines of
Kajaran (Syunik region).
Speaking to Tert.am, Ter-Gulanyan said it is up to the kiosk owners,
not the Yerevan mayor, to solve the problem.
~SThe kiosks must not be located here. My opinion about the mayor~Rs
work is positive, and I am sure the problem was at issue much
before he took office. I propose that the owners give up the idea,
especially knowing that these kiosks are not the only property they
have,~T he said.
The youth activists protesting near the park are now singing patriotic
songs and dancing together.
