Just another example of the sorry state of affairs in Armenia. The only noteworthy change has been the rebirth of the Yerevan economy with high end shopping etc. It’s about time the Parliament is held accountable for the other half of the citizens who choose stay on because they love Armenia. As a long time supporter of Armenia I’m finding it more and more difficult to to explain away the inhumane living conditions which have prevailed for so long amot!
I don’t think people have enough money to fix it themselves and the mentality is still paternal toward the state. Bathrooms are one of the biggest issues in Armenia’s schools. Even if there is running water in the villlage, the bathrooms in the schools are often unusable.
I am ready to pay for the renovation.
