Armenia's population totals only 2% of the population of the South
Caucasus region, independent expert Ruben Yeganyan told media in
Yerevan, Monday.
"Armenia is considered an aging country and must boost birthrate. I
think that it is necessary to provide a 450,000 drams one-time
assistance for every second and the following children," he said. For
his part, Vanik Babajanyan, Head of the Department for Demography,
Social Security Ministry, said measures have been taken already to
improve the demographic situation in the country.
"Now, 450,000 drams is provided to every third and the following
children. In addition, 425 young families received housing loans,
including 175 in the regions," Babajanyan said.
