CHORRORD ISHKHANUTYUN: NEED FOR SCIENCE NO LONGER FELT IN ARMENIA?
June 26, 2014
YEREVAN. - Energy and Natural Resources Minister of Armenia Yervand
Zakharyan has signed a decree, according to which the ministry's
development department chemistry division will be dissolved on July 2,
Chorrord Ishkhanutyun newspaper reported.
"The reason is understandable: Armenia does not need chemistry.
Ensuring the designing of a state policy and strategy for the
development of Armenia's chemical industry was a function of the
dissolved division.
"And since our chemical industry has fallen into the same state as
civil aviation, for example, there is no need to develop any project.
"We assume that the need for physics, biology, perhaps Armenian
language, and, in general, for science will not be felt in Armenia
in the foreseeable future," Chorrord Ishkhanutyun wrote.
