Al Jazeera television has prepared a short footage about the Armenians
of Syria, focusing particularly on their options in the current heated
conflict and the Armenian aid delivered to the county.
The author of the report, Sue Turton, speaks how the Armenian
humanitarian shipment en route to Syria was ordered to land at a
Turkish airport twice for a search of weapons.
`Roughly 80,000 live in the country, and though Armenia has offered
passports to any who want to leave, the vast majority have decided
to stay in their homes and communities. Relatives across the border in
Turkey have encouraged them to leave, but it seems the Armenians in
Syria still hope they can wait out the conflict,' she says.
