Protest Demonstrations of Dalma Garden land owners became regular ones, as nobody want to solve their main problems and to give compensations for lost land areas. On May 27 they again gathered near the Presidents seat. “3-4 weeks ago Yerevan Mayor received several demonstrators and promised that the problems of 48 land areas will be solved privately. Nothing has been done so far. They say Mayor hasn’t changes his decision yet, unfortunately, this situation hasn’t changed as well,” says the statement of the Initiative Group having disseminated it in Ecolur.org through Facebook.
It should be noted that land owners have already passed through court proceedings and were rejected in all the court instances to have their lawsuits tried.
The Aarhus Convention Compliance Committee has also considered their matter and its made a decision about non-compliance with the convention provisions by Armenia in this matter.
Now on the part of all land owners the Initiative group intends to take more drastic measures, for example, a sit-down strike or to make a petition to leave this country which they will have to do.
It should be noted while land owners are protecting their own rights, nothing has already been left from the historical pride of Yerevan, Dalma Gardens, and this region is almost covered with mansions.
