ARKA
Sep 5, 2011
YEREVAN, September 5. /ARKA/. On Thursday, Armenian government approved
the agreement to be signed with the United Arab Emirates on usage of
Armenian human resources in this country's territory.
Armen Gevorgyan, vice premier and territorial administration minister,
said that a similar agreement had been signed with Qatar, since
representatives of this country invited Armenian companies, mainly
constructor companies, to take part in programs being implemented in
their country.
Speaking about the agreement approved by the government on Thursday,
Gevorgyan said that this is one of those documents regulating
migration-related issues.
He said these countries attract human resources for implementing
their programs regardless of any agreement.
"Armenia's citizens work either in the United Arab Emirates or in
Qatar," he said. "Our colleagues proposed Armenia not to remain on
the sidelines, but to be along with its citizens to settle problems,
if any."
Gagik Yeganyan, chief of the Armenian territorial administration
ministry's migration agency, answering the questions journalists
put to him, found it difficult to say how many labor migrants from
Armenia were at the moment in the United Arab Emirates and Qatar.
