10:05 30.07.13
Migration from Armenia assumed increasingly alarming scales in the
past six months, with a total of 39,897 Armenian citizens having left
the country only by air, the paper says, citing the latest report by
the General Aviation Department.
The findings have revealed that some 363,009 Armenian citizens departed
from and another 330,484 arrived at the Zvarthnots International
Airport in the reporting period, says the paper, adding that the
departure and arrival rates at Gyumri's Shirak airport have proven
to be 19,693 and 12,339, respectively.
Yet, there are many migrants who choose to take buses as a means of
transport, the paper continues. Citing further its sources, it says the
authorities are doing their best to postpone the publication of exact
figures. According to the paper, the National Statistical Service's
regular report, which was due on Monday, was not published on purpose
as the index was also expected to address the migration rate.
