The number of people protesting against the set up of boutiques in the
Mashtots Park is growing. Public and political figures, intellectuals
have already joined the environmental activists.
The Armenian advisor to the UN Secretary General Gulnara Shahinyan who
is in Yerevan on a working visit also participated in these protests.
"This is a very critical and alarming moment. This is not only a
breach of environmental rules but also human rights. I think not only
the youth but everyone else should join this protest," the advisor
to the UN Secretary General said to Lragir.am. According to her,
the cause of emigration is not only poverty but also unlawfulness.
"The law is enforced for one person and is not for the other one.
People are not protected by the law and by their government. This
disappointment leads to emigration," Gulnara Shahinyan underlined,
adding that Armenia is regressing instead of building democracy.
