    FEW ARMENIAN WOMEN MARRY

    Member of Parliament Shavarsh Kocharyan told news reporters September
    8 that there is a serious demographic problem in Armenia. According
    to the member of parliament, he has been to Europe for a number of
    times, and statistics about the Armenian women is not reassuring. For
    instance, Shavarsh Kocharyan says if in the European countries there
    is 1.5 child per woman, in Armenia there is 1.3.

    Besides, he says, 60 percent of women below 50 are married, in Armenia
    50 percent of women are married. Considering that non-registered
    marriages in Europe are very frequent, and in Armenia they are not,
    the difference becomes apparent.

    The member of parliament says a multi-layer and complex action plan
    should be worked out to stimulate the birth rate. However, he says,
    it is important that the citizens connect their future with the
    country. Whereas nothing is done in this direction, says Shavarsh
    Kocharyan.
