A resident of Armenia’s resort town of Jermuk, activist Shirak Buniatyan is warning of possible bloodshed over Amulsar gold mine exploitation.
“Sad but true. I believe that the developments around Amulsar are likely to end in bloodshed amid the tacit connivance of the government …” he said on Facebook.
Also, the activist reprimanded lawmakers for their failure to stand by the defenders of Amulsar.
His comments came after clashes erupted between police and the activists opposing Amulsar gold mine operation on Monday evening, as a result of which around 10 citizens were detained and later released.
