Head of the Methodological Assistance Department at the Armenian
Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs Armen Margaryan said that as of
the beginning of 2011around 2,800 veterans of the Great Patriotic War
received compensations at the total amount of AMD 600mln for their
"frozen" deposits in the Savings Bank of the former USSR.
The program of compensations is under way. The government has not
set definite terms for its completion, thus, eligible persons can
still apply to receive compensation, Margaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net
reporter.
On March 25, 2010, the Armenian government made a decision to pay
compensations to veterans of the Great Patriotic War for their old
deposits held until June 10, 1993, in the Savings Bank of the former
USSR. The compensations are paid only to those people, who were
included in the list of families receiving benefits from July 1,
2005, to April 1, 2006.
AMD 1.7bln was allocated for payment of compensations for the "frozen"
Soviet deposits in 2010.
