    MINISTRIES


    MOSCOW, JUNE 30, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. Regular consultations
    between the RA and RF Ministries of Foreign Affairs took place in

    the sphere of migration. It was mentioned bilaterally that amendments
    to be made to the legislation regulating the legal status of foreign
    citizens in RF will allow to make easier the order of getting
    permission for temporary living and work activity in the RF for
    citizens of the CIS member-states.
