Natural and Climate Conditions, Not Arson Caused Fire in NKR

PanARMENIAN.Net - October 13 Secretary of the Council of National Security at the President of Armenia, Defense Minister Serge Sargsyan met with head of the OSCE Office in Yerevan, Ambassador Vladimir Pryakhin. Responsible for Economy and Environment of the OSCE Office Janette Clotzer was also present at the meeting. As Spokesperson of the Armenian MOD, colonel Seyran Shahsuvaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, Pryakhin presented the outcomes of the investigation held with mediation of the OSCE. According to it fires in some NKR territories were due to natural and climate conditions, not arson. Thus, Azeri party accusations on arson are groundless. International environment organizations believe an anti-fire system should be created in these zones. Besides, Pryakhin presented the process of work within the second phase of the program on elimination of rocket propellant of melange type. As a result the melange is processed into an environmentally clean fertilizer. At the end of the meeting Serge Sargsyan awarded V. Pryakhin and Janette Clotzer Marshal Baghramyan medals due to effective organization of works to eliminate melange, as well as on the 15th anniversary of Armenia's independence.
