About 6,500 Armenians have moved to the Motherland since the
escalation of situation in Syria. The issues of their accommodation
and employment remain the most urgent ones.
According to Hranush Hakobyan, the inter-departmental commission set
up at the initiative of the President of the republic is doing its
best to help solve the problems Syrian Armenians face.
The Minister informed that the program of construction of houses for
Syrian Armenians in areas around Yerevan is in progress. In the coming

in aid monthly.
