"More than 900 mining enterprises are operating in the territory of Armenia. Of these enterprises, 24 are directly specialized in the production and processing of precious metals," said Sabit Bagirov, a member of the “Environmental Protection First” NGO coalition, at a briefing related to the Metsamor Nuclear Power Plant held by the coalition, APA reports.

He touched upon the issue of deliberate pollution of the Aras River by Armenia: “Today, the entire territory of our country is at risk. We are talking about a nuclear threat. The Islamic Republic of Iran also issued serious messages of concern regarding this matter back in February. Education and countermeasures must come to the forefront here. In such a case, the role of the media in this work is very important. At the same time, I consider it necessary to raise the issue seriously before international organizations regarding the nuclear threats we face. For example, 33 organizations in Türkiye have sounded the alarm over concerns. More than 900 mining enterprises are operating in the territory of Armenia. Of these enterprises, 24 are directly specialized in the production and processing of precious metals."
