YEREVAN, OCTOBER 10, ARMENPRESS: The United Nations Organization will
implement a new program of assistance to the Syrian Armenians. The
Deputy Director of the Center for Coordination of Syrian Armenians
Issues Aleksan Karadanayan told Armenpress that the UN monthly program
will launch soon and in its framework each Syrian Armenian living in
our country will be provided with 16 kilogram food basket. "The food
basket will include vegetable oil, rice, pasta, etc", - stated the
Deputy Director of the Center.
The Syrian Armenians, who have moved to Armenia due to the political
crisis in Syria, do not get money assistance from the UN, as they
are not registered as refugees. The UN allocates monthly $30 to the
Syrians, who moved to Lebanon. The Syrian Armenians, who have come
to our country, were provided with passports and became the citizens
of the Republic of Armenia. The Deputy Director of the Center for
Coordination of Syrian Armenians Issues Aleksan Karadanayan noted that
a part of the Syrian Armenians have here their own apartments. They,
who are financially backed up, rent apartments and the needy Syrian
Armenians are provided with residential areas in the Yerevan suburbs
by the state.
Currently about 10,000 Syrian Armenians live in Armenia, who are
permanently supported by the Ministry of Diaspora of the Republic
of Armenia in apartment and job issues. About 1000 Syrian Armenians
applied to the Ministry and were provided with jobs.
