The issues of the Armenians Syrians in Armenia are being solved that
is why the number of dissatisfied people has become less, says member
of the Social-Democratic Hnchakyan Party Aleppo office Vazgen
Mesropyan. He noted that the initial complaints were related to the
fact that they couldn't receive a visa and the fines they had to pay
after staying in Armenia for 21 days, as well as problems relating to
receiving Armenian citizenship. Today these issues are being solved.
The only unsolved issue for the Armenian Syrians is unempolyment.
According to Vazgen Mesropyan, 5000-6000 Armenian Syrians have moved
to Armenia but few of them found jobs. The Armenian Syrians do not
agree to work for the pay offered by the Armenian employers.
According to Mesropyan, the Armenian Syrians don't want to set up
businesses here because they don't know whether they will stay or
leave, also because they have always heard bad things about the
investment climate in Armenia. Mesropyan says Armenian Syrians think
they will have problems here, so they do not want to run a business
here.
As to apartments, Vazgen Mesropyan said Armenian Syrians mostly rent
apartments here. `What can the government do? Can it provide
apartments? As far as I know, housing has been provided but will the
Armenians of Aleppo live in those apartments?
Vazgen Mesropyan informed that the greater part of Armenian Syrians
have already received Armenian citizenship, but it is hard to say
whether they will stay here or will leave for a third country.
