ArmInfo. In search of truth in the Amulsar gold mine, the Armenian government intends to go all the way. Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyanl stated this at a press conference on September 16, answering the question of whether he thinks that 400 thousand dollars (this is exactly what the taxpayer cost the expertise – Ed. note) were wasted.

The funds, according to the prime minister, were spent to clarify the truth in Amulsar's issue. "I don't think that any funds spent on finding the truth can be considered wasted, "he said

The head of government assured that all actions of the government on Amulsar are 100% transparent. According to him, during a Skype conference with experts from Earthlink & Advanced Resources Development (ELARD), which was instructed to conduct an EIA study on Amulsar, new circumstances were revealed. Regarding the security of the project, as the prime minister pointed out, the ELARD team said that Lydian was the guarantor of security in any case.

Touching on the blocking of the road to the Amulsar mine, Pashinyan stated that there is a decision of the Administrative Court to open the road. "My position and the government are ready to go to the end, in order to reveal the truth. Truth will lead us to one or another decision. And the public should not give in to manipulations, including from the side of my respected friends," said Pashinyan, calling the manipulation those citizens traveling with a device to measure the level of radiation in the vicinity of Amulsar. He noted Teghut as a vivid, in his opinion, example of a successful solution, again recalling the inconsistency of talking about the poor condition of the dam. "In the matter of seeking the truth on Amulsar, we will go to the end. The Armenian government will not make a decision under pressure," he concluded.

To recall, Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan today stated that at the moment there are no legal grounds to prohibit the operation of the Amulsar mine. Nikol Pashinyan also formally called on the residents of Jermuk to open all roads leading to the Amulsar mine. Meanwhile, on August 19, experts at Earthlink & Advanced Resources Development (ELARD) said during a video conference that the Lydian source data was not complete and, in general, the 2016 EIA was insufficient to guarantee the environmentally operation of the mine.

PM Pashinyan congratulates on anniversary of adoption of Independence Declaration

17:37,

YEREVAN, AUGUST 23, ARMENPRESS. Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan issued a congratulatory message on the anniversary of the adoption of Independence Declaration. As ARMENPRESS was informed from the Office of the Prime Minister of Armenia,

The message runs as follows,

“Dear compatriots, I congratulate all of us on the occasion of the day of Independence Declaration adoption.

29 years have passed since the Supreme Council adopted the Independence Declaration. It was the manifestation of the united will of the Armenian people, which heralded the start of the Armenian statehood.

During these years of establishment of sovereignty every single day has been for us an uninterrupted chain of hardships of public coexistence, domestic and external, well known and hidden challenges, which again we were able to overcome with united will.

Karabakh war, the April war of 2016, the developments of April-May 2018 showed that the problems that seem to be insurmountable can be solved relying exclusively on our own potential, united will and the strong belief of development.

I am confident that the Armenian people will never again tolerate loss of statehood, sovereignty and rights. Probably, the Republic of Armenia must live on Earth eternally, highly waving our spirit and pride, our freedom and the flag symbolizing our sovereignty.

God protect the Republic of Armenia”.

16:14, 21.08.2019

YEREVAN. – At Wednesday’s hearing on the criminal case involving ten members of the Sasna Tsrer armed group of Armenia, the capital city Yerevan court of general jurisdiction denied the motion by defendant Smbat Barseghyan’s attorney to repeal or commute his client’s pretrial measure of custody and to release him.

Barseghyan is charged with killing police officer Yuri Tepanosyan.

Subsequently, the court adjourned.

At the next court hearing, the material evidence in the case will be examined.

Of the aforesaid ten members, solely defendants Armen Bilyan and Smbat Barseghyan are still in custody along the lines of this case. They are accused of killing police officers.

After last year’s revolution in Armenia, and based on the personal pledges submitted by MPs, the pretrial measure of custody that was in force for seven other members was commuted and they were released, while Sasna Tsrer member Pavel Manukyan was set free on a 1mn-dram bail.

In protest of the then authorities, the Sasna Tsrer armed group took over a police patrol regiment building in Yerevan and held hostages, but later surrendered in July 2016. Three police officers, however, were killed during the two-week standoff.

Criminal charges have been brought against 32 people in connection with this incident and related developments.
