YEREVAN, JUNE 4, ARMENPRESS: As a consequence of the crisis of home
politics in Syria, no activeness of applications is registered in
Armenia's migration agencies. Ruzanna Petrosyan, chief specialist
of the asylum affairs department of the State Migration Service told
Armenpress that the latest application from Syria was received in May.
"During 2012 we have received 4 applications, 3 of which belong to
members of the same family. Their applications have been answered,
and one of them has already received an asylum," said Mrs Petrosyan.
Hovhannes Kocharyan, head of the Passport and Visa Department of the
Police, noted that they receive numerous applications from Syria on
getting a status and citizenship. But he found it difficult to point
out data, noting that in contrast to 2011, this year the number of
those wishing to obtain citizenship has grown.
