On 27 January 2017, Hakob Hakobyan, owner and manager of the Tufenkian Avan Dzoraget Hotel, submitted a complaint to the European Investment Bank (EIB) in relation to the M6 Interstate Road project in Armenia. The project consists of the rehabilitation and upgrading of the M6 interstate road on a length of about 90 km between Vanadzor in central Armenia and Bagratashen on the northeastern border between Armenia and Georgia. The project is promoted and implemented by the Ministry of Transport and Communication of Armenia (the promoter). The complainant claims that he has suffered economic losses due to the road construction works. The complainant has contacted the promoter to discuss possible mitigating actions, but they were unable to reach a solution. The complainant requests the Bank to ensure that his losses are reimbursed.
