The global economic crisis will affect the migration situation
in Armenia, Head of the Migration Department of the Ministry of
Territorial Administration of Armenia Gagik Yeganyan told a press
conference today.
He said the consequences of the crisis will be felt in three
directions.
First, the volume of money transfers from abroad will reduce. Secondly,
the number of Armenian citizens working aboard will lessen because
of the lack of jobs, and this will, in turn, result in the increase
of the number of people returning to motherland.
According to Gagik Yeganyan, the Government has already taken measures
to mitigate the situation. "The Employment Agency declared recently
that there are jobs available in Armenia today. We hope that those
who return will be employed here. Besides, we have various proposals
to offer them," the Head of the Department on Migration said.
