    The number of specialists on forest is very few

    The volume of forest areas subjected to illegal deforestation is dozen
    times more that it is mentioned in the reports of the official figures,
    Doctor of Geographical Sciences Govik Sayadyan says. He thinks that this
    fact is very painful since Armenia has a very particular forest system. "In
    contrast to Sweden, where there are 5 tree species, in Armneia we have more
    than 262 species of trees and plants, which is a huge wealth."

    Doctor of Geographical Sciences highlights Teghut forest, where nature has
    been preserved in a "virgin" condition and there are some species of trees
    registered in the Red Book and in such kind of areas v deforestation is a
    violation of the law.

    Hovik Sayadyan is also concerned with the number of professionals involved
    in issues concerning Armenia's forests:it is very few: there are just 5 of
    them "Thus we do not have any appreciation of the economic study of the
    forests either", - he added desperately.
