The Armenians of Denmark expressed their support to environmental activists struggling against construction in Mashtots park in Yerevan downtown.

“We are concerned with the complicated situation around the Mashtots Park, and Teghut forest and always follow the developments around these issues.  We join your claim to stop the construction in the park, remove the trade booths and leave the park to its owners – the residents of Yerevan,” they said in a letter.

They also mentioned that consider activists’ actions a precedent and a good example of protecting public property and voicing out injustice.

The Armenians of Denmark also called on the international organizations in Armenia and Diaspora groups to pursue the issue and express their support to the public activism.
