YEREVAN. – Do you think all problems will be resolved by closing the airspace? It could make the problem worse because the situation would be more difficult if these same passengers who are coming and are coming with the infection had come with transit. Tatevik Revazian, Chair of the Civil Aviation Committee of Armenia, told this to reporters.
A charter flight from Italy is expected on Sunday, and in this regard Revazian said the passengers on board this flight will be separated from other passengers at Yerevan’s international airport.
"They are tourists, students, there are Armenians living there [on board this flight]," she added, in particular.
Asked if it would be safer to close the airspace with several countries, Revazian said: "Do you think all problems will be resolved by closing the airspace? It could make the problem worse because the situation would be more difficult if these same passengers who are coming and are coming with the infection had come with transit. We have a direct flight, we can arrange specific events at the airport so that they are separated from other passengers."
