made 2.9 thousand people, was recorded in Armenia in 2007. It should
be mentioned that a positive saldo was recorded in 2006 making 21.8
thousand people. This information was provided to a Noyan Tapan
correspondent by Vahan Bakhshetian, the Deputy Head of the Migration
Program Department of the Migration Agency under the RA Ministry of

in January - May, a positive one in June - July, a negative one in
August - September, and a positive saldo in October - December.

are increasing year after year. The general volume of passenger flows
