"This is not an honor for our people. Many people, who have been
deprived of their assets go from door-to-door there are thousands of
women like me, who are left without children and grandchildren and are
forced to go out on the street every week," said today Luiza Hakobyan,
who lives on the street in front of the Government Building. According
to her, she has lived in a 6-room house for 5 years, but the government
has thrown her out of her house with little money and she has been
living on rent for the past five years after that. "Let them give me
a normal house or a decent amount of money," she says.

As every Thursday, the people who have lost their homes were
standing in front of the government building and demanding a normal
compensation. They also wanted to meet with the Prime Minister.

Tigran Piloyan, who lives on 38 Aram Street, says that he is first
and foremost fighting for his rights. He has not signed any contract,
but they have compensated 64,000 dollars for his 200 square meter
area. He had 40 fruit trees, 60 bushes of Dutch roses on his land,
but he didn’t receive any compensation for that. "They keep talking
about greenery, but they destroyed all that greenery and left it
under the bulldozers," says Tigran Piloyan.
