Given Armenia’s small size, such toxic environmental issues has a higher impact on the population than other countries. The Armenian government needs to defend Armenia’s lands from abuse and exploitation.
Armenian officials could care less about Armenians who starve and barely have anything to place on a table. They count dollars donated to Armenian poor, and maybe, if at all, give 5% of what was donated. The rest of the money is taken by Serge and his mafia. All their candidates, everyone, even though they show support for the people and play against each other, they are all from the same mafia. Trust me, money rules in Armenia. Go to Armenia and see for yourself. You donate money to clean the environment? they’ll take it and buy themselves a Mercedes S500 class if not higher.
