Gegharkouniq Community Reps Oppose Today's Lake Sevan Parliamentary Hearing

The Ecolur Informational NGO reports that it has petitioned National Assembly President Hovik Abrahamyan to nullify a parliamentary hearing on Lake Sevan scheduled for today.

At today’s hearing, the issue of whether to draw down 320million cubic meters of lake water will be discussed.

Ecolur has petioned Abrahamyan and Samvel Balasanyan, who heads the parliament’s Standing Committee on Agricultural and Environmental Issues, on behalf of twenty Gegharkouniq civic groups and local community leaders who are against the measure and have already made their opinion known to the parliament.

Ecolur says that these community representatives have been denied access to today’s hearing, in violation of the RA Constitution and the Aarhaus Convention.
