/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The first group of repatriates from Russia will arrive in
Armenia from Russia in late summer, said Chief of the Department of
Migration and Refugees under the Armenian Government Gagik Yeganian. It
should be noted that he is in Moscow at present to acquaint Armenian
citizens living in Russia with the details of the Armenian-Russian agreement
on voluntary resettlement. It should be noted that the document, signed
already in 1998, remained idle due to absence of mechanisms for its
realization. In the course of the visit to Moscow members of the Armenian
delegation met with the Consul of Armenia in Russia, representatives of
Armenian non-governmental organizations, head of the New Nakhichevan Diocese
of the Armenian Apostolic Church Bishop Yezras and local Armenians. "These
meetings are called to contribute to our compatriots getting to know about
benefits being granted in case of their return to the fatherland. For
example, many people do not know that in case of moving, the Armenian party
will assume all property transportation expenses," G. Yeganian said, noting
that repatriates are generally preoccupied with issues referring to paper
work.
