YEREVAN.- Bankruptcy of Armavia air company will not affect operation
of Stepanakert airport, head of Nagorno-Karabakh General Department
of Civil Aviation Dmitri Adbashyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.
"Several other air companies are registered in Armenia. One of them
will operate flights to Karabakh," he added.
Armavia Airline Company, which is Armenia's national carrier, issued
a statement recently and informed that its flights will end on Monday
and a bankruptcy process will commence.
Armavia has huge debts to its employees, Yerevan's
ZvartnotsInternationalAirport, Russian companies, and Russian airports.
Opening of the Stepanakert airport remains a number one issue in
Azerbaijan. The official Baku periodically voices threats to shoot
down the aircrafts. However, Azerbaijani Deputy Minister Araz Azimov
recently said "official Baku will not permit Armenia to conduct civil
aviation flights over the air space of occupied Nagorno-Karabakh,
but it will do this without the use of military means."
