Botany Institute of NAS RA after Takhtanjyan did not present a professional opinion regarding the large-scale tree cutting and replacement works in Yerevan, as it was announced by Institute Director Arsen Gasparyan.
"Scientists of the Institute expressed an opinion on the general idea of replacing diseased trees," Arsen Gasparyan said.
He mentioned that there should be a clearly developed plan to carry out such large-scale works. "Our institute did not receive such a program, did not discuss it and did not respond," said Arsen Gasparyan.
According to Director of Botany Institute of NAS RA, this process also has a public component. "My call is to present and publicize the complete program, the professional foundations for each street and tree. The Institute of Botany has recently carried out research, presented species for Yerevan that are beneficial to climate change in the long term. I will advise you to use the results of science."
