IRATES DE FACTO: ARMENIA TO HAVE NEW EMIGRATION FLOW?
March 21, 2014
YEREVAN. - The law, which the Russian Federation (RF) government
approved recently, has caused quite a lot of enthusiasm in Armenia's
rural communities, where there are a large number of migrant workers,
Irates De Facto newspaper reported.
"Pursuant to this law, people living in the former USSR countries
can easily become an RF citizen in three months, if they give up
citizenship of their own country.
"Our compatriots living in the villages are excited by this law. Many
have even decided to leave the country with their families; the youth,
with the expectation of work, the elderly, with higher pension.
"It should be noted that this law will contribute to the already
alarming rates of emigration [fromArmenia].
"Incidentally, the migrant workers we knew considered this law a
'salvation,' since they no longer will face red tape to obtain Russian
citizenship," Irates De Facto wrote.
