Employees of the “Araratcement” plant, owned by Gagik Tsarukyan, leader of the PAP, are continuing their protest, demanding the resumption of the enterprise’s operations.

One of the employees, who has worked at the plant for 15 years, told journalists that they no longer have hope that state authorities will find a fair solution to the problem.

“Until now, we have waited very patiently and modestly, hoping that some kind of solution would be found. But it’s clear that if we keep waiting patiently, they will keep dragging things out and doing nothing. So it’s time for us to start acting. And we definitely don’t trust the negotiators on the state’s side,” she noted.
