    ARMENIAN MPS COMMENT ON READMISSION AGREEMENT

    20:07 ~U 01.11.13

    The Agreement on Readmission, which was discussed along with the
    Visa Facilitation Agreement, caused panic in the Armenian Diaspora,
    among Armenian national illegally staying abroad.

    Naira Zohrabyan, Chairwoman of the Standing Committee on European
    Integration, Parliament of Armenia, received calls from Armenian
    national staying in France and Belgium.

    "Armenian nationals illegally staying abroad misperceive the Agreement
    on Readmission. They think that they will be deported after the
    agreement has been ratified. I believe that we have to raise public
    awareness of the Visa Facilitation Agreement as well," Zohrabyan said.

    The Standing Committee on European Integration and the Standing
    Committee on Foreign Relations plan to hold hearings on the Armenia-EU
    relations.

    Tevan Poghosyan of the Heritage parliamentary group told Tert.am
    that Armenia has had readmission agreements with 13 European states,
    and only 32 people have been deported to Armenia.

    "Secondly, even if they want to deport Armenians, it will not be done
    under the Agreement on Readmission. Laws allow the authorities to
    deport Armenian nationals without any problems, while the Agreement
    on Readmission will regulate the process," Poghosyan said.
