YEREVAN. - Armenian parliament adopted amendments on 'The Citizenship
of Armenia" law in the first reading.
The bill withdraws the requirement to pass the exam in the Armenian
language on Armenian Constitution. The law states that certain groups
of people (Armenian by origin, spouse of Armenian citizens, parents
of a child of Armenian citizenship) get the citizenship without having
lived in the state or the knowledge of the language. Passing the exam
in the Armenian language on Armenian Constitution is also withdrawn.
Children of 14-18 years old, whose parents have received the
citizenship, may get it providing written statement.
