Yerevan /Mediamax/. A new package of proposals on the situation around Nairit Plant will be submitted till September 15.

Minister of Energy and Natural Resources of Armenia Yervand Zakharyan said this to employees of Nairit Plant who were holding a protest in front of the Armenian government building today.
 
He said that they didn't receive any offer from Russian Rosneft and they shouldn't have had hopes only with that company. Yervand Zakharyan promised that the Nairit employees will get salaries for a month within upcoming days.

Nairit Plant hasn't paid salaries to its employees for 18 months.

After meeting with Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev in Sochi on February 24, 2014, former Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan said that Rosneft was going to invest around  $ 500mln in Armenia.

''We listened to Rosneft President Igor Sechin's report on the work done and their plans. They are going to implement a program of around USD500mln investments in Armenia. Within coming week, we will thoroughly discuss what conditions we should create for the investments to be carried out in short period of time. The program concerns Nairit Plant as the newly built plant will mostly employ Nairit workers in the first place'', Tigran Sargsyan said then.
