The “First Informational” quest is Mariam Sukhudyan, “Teghout” Protection Group Member.
M. S.: Together with “We Are This City’s Owners” Initiative Group we have met with Mayor and submitted him the list of endangered gardens, including Student Garden, Park of Dragons etc: we hoped to find some edges for cooperation. We are not closed and stereotyped and for the sake of green we are willing to give an opportunity to Mayor and see what results we will have, nevertheless, we will be very consistent. At present both positive and negative phenomena are going on.
It is very positive that trees are planted, but tree planting must be successive and not at the expense of other tree felling. In this regard the Mayor said such words I am really shocked, he said when a tree is green in spring and turns into grey in winter, then it is not a tree, if a tree spreads seeds into air, it must be cut down, in this case the man should also be cut down, it is not an approach as such.
F. I.: If we have natural resources, we shouldn't mine them?
M. S.: I drastically oppose to mining, and I think resources should be reasonably developed and something must be left for future generations, a mining strategy and special programs must be developed.
