CUTTING WITHOUT "DOCTOR’S DIAGNOSIS"

Social

At noon the employees of “Planting of Greenery” CJSC cut a tree of 120-150 centimeters in diameter in Pushkin Park of Yerevan. “The tree was sick, so we cut it”, tree-cutters explained to the passers-by.

Tree trunk wasn’t withered, so there is no satisfactory argument that the tree was subject to cutting for sanitary reasons.

”There is the Mayor’s decision to cut all the withered trees”, Avag Danielyan, head of “Center- Greenery Planting” CJSC commented. He also said there are more 8-9 trees in Pushkin Park to be cut. He was asked if the new ones would be planted instead. “Of course, tree planting will be held in the centre, including in the garden nearby Parliament”, Mr. Danielyan said.
