People suffocate with smoke, but emissions within standards [Armenia]

“I’ve got problems with my throat, I’m a sportsman…but now I’m suffocating, while my throat’s burning…” EcoLur received these complaints from people living or working near “Pure Iron” factory...and “Armenian Titanium Production” LLC...EcoLur draws the attention of Nature Protection Ministry and Health Ministry of Armenia to this issue and demands to carry out monitoring of emissions to prevent risks for human health and environment...[Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited Armenian Titanium Production to respond, but it has not done so.]
