Heritage Party Deputy Zaruhi Postanjyan, the member of the Armenian Delegation to PACE spoke at PACE session on the issue of Teghout deposit exploitation. She stated that the license on the deposit exploitation was issued with violation of RA Constitution provisions and Teghout exploitation poses great danger to environment…
... “Dear Delegates, I present to your attention the protocol on right to healthy environment, and as an example I would like to point out the absence of effective legal mechanisms in the fight against Teghout deposit exploitation in Armenia”...
... Zaruhi Postanjyan outlined that 540 million tails and dumps will emerge as a result of Teghout development and all this poses radiation threat. “The pollution of transboundary water of the Debed River cannot be excluded either. The deposit exploitation will cause irreversible damage to the unique biodiversity in Armenia, destroy flora and people’s healthy life style.”
