MUNICIPALITY HAD GUESTS
Support A1+!The tradesmen of the subways of the Barekamutyun, Yeritasardakan, and Sasuntsi David Underground stations, as well as those of the Komitas 53 and Abovyan-Koryun subways gathered today opposite the Yerevan municipality. The gathering of hundreds of people brought the Security Service workers to the above mentioned area.
The organizers of the act of complaint demanded the mayor to receive them. Deputy mayor Sargsyan came to receive them instead.
The tradesmen of the Barekamutyun and Yeritasardakan subways do not have a rent contract with the municipality. “We asked them more than once to sign a contract with us, but they refused saying that they have to reconstruct the area. Taking into account the fact that we do not have a contract, we are afraid that after the reconstruction there will be 12 stores instead the 37 kiosks with completely different owners. We made an offer to carry out the process with our financial means and their projects. Deputy mayor Sargsyan received us and promised to sign contracts about the payment. At the same time we will sign contracts that if the present kiosks are deconstructed, only we can become owners of them after the reconstruction”. These were the words of Azat Navasardyan who represented the interests of the 37 tradesmen of the Abovyan-Koryun subway.
Today the real danger menaces the tradesmen of the Barekamutyun subway, but the other joined them because they fear soon they will deserve the same fate. According to Andranik Haroutyunyan, “They want to sell the area to someone who will carry out total reconstruction and give us the areas for 150-200 USD instead of the 6500 AMD which we pay today”.
The participants of the act of complaint left the area filled with hopes and expectations.
