Intensive forest felling in Armenia has negative impact on forests, which is a fact acknowledged by the Armenian Government. On 10 December the executive adopted National Action Plan on Conservation, Protection, Recovery and Use of Biodiversity, which says that the density of the forest has reduced because of tree felling, economically high-value oak and beech trees have been replaced with low-value species. Red-listed species have disappeared and springs have dried out. Any tree felling shall be excluded in the areas providing ecosystem services needed for rich biodiversity.
