AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Mining: As COP17 opened in Yerevan, Economy Minister Gevorg Papoyan said Amulsar could generate up to $130 million in annual taxes, support 1,600 direct jobs and add 1.5–2% to GDP. He cited studies finding limited environmental impact, while activists renewed calls to suspend operations and reassess the project. Environmental oversight: Armenia’s inspectorate referred a Lake Sevan pollution case to prosecutors after finding damage worth nearly 946,000 drams. Export logistics: New Civil Aviation Committee head Gevorg Torosyan says he will prioritize expanding air-cargo capacity and routes to help Armenian products reach more markets. Industrial investment: Glassmaker PROFAL plans to invest another $10 million in processing, while Armenia is also preparing subsidies for energy storage at solar plants.
