UNITING THE NATION

The dual citizenship is a unilateral obligation the Republic of Armenia
assumes under the international law to make Armenia the spiritual
homeland of all Armenians and partly offset the history's wrinkles
and contribute to repatriation.
The dual citizenship stems from the unique situation of the Armenian
people because we are a nation, which has found itself spread all
over the world after undergoing a genocide in its homeland at the
end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century.
The Armenians of Diaspora have for decades preserved their culture,
national identity with a vision to have an independent state and
return to their homeland.
Any Armenian who has a national dignity wants to see Armenia as the
homeland of the entire nation.
Currently, only one-third of the Armenians reside in the independent
homeland. This situation calls for a united national identity, which
would include close cooperation in such areas as ethno-culture,
language, spiritual and traditions, and would formulate a joint
responsibility for the homeland and future of the Armenians based on
national and historic memory.
