(MENAFN- azernews) the world community must take measures to prevent the
construction of a metallurgical plant in the village of arazdayan,
located on the border between armenia and azerbaijan's nakhchivan
ar.
steven anguva shikoli, representative of the network of tb
champions (kenya) has told local media, azernews reports.
"i strongly oppose the construction of this plant, because the
chemicals that will be released during the production process at
this facility will pollute the environment not only around it, but
also in the wider region. the air we breathe, our climate - it's
all interconnected. so this catastrophic construction will end up
polluting the air even in africa," he said.
according to the expert, this will have a huge impact on
wildlife, for example, in kenya.
"we have already seen how such factories around the world are
killing nature. all this money spent on the construction of this
steel plant could be used to build new hospitals or schools. so, i
call on the global civil society to oppose the construction of this
plant," he concluded.
it is worth noting that the armenian-american steel plant covers
a vast area of 16,500 square meters and is expected to have an
annual production capacity of 180,000 tons.
