The HayAntar governmental organization is responsible for the maintenance and protection of forest lands. It is an affiliate of the Ministry of Agriculture. Romanos Petrosyan, Armenia’s Minister of Environment, explains to CivilNet the reason why there is an increase in severe cases of deforestation.
