Vardan Voskanyan, an expert in Iran studies, says there is nothing
strange in the fact that Iranians come to Armenia to celebrate Nowruz
(Iranian New year) here as in the last 30-40 years Iranians have been
celebrating the holiday in other countries
"They come to Armenia as Iran has a land border with us and everything
[in Armenia] is more affordable and cheaper for them," says the expert.
"Iranians do not pay much attention to the living conditions, but
they pay attention to entertainment and food, which is much better
in our country," he added.
Besides, Iranians feel safer in Armenia. "They feel safer in Armenia
and no one will steal their wallet on the street, which cannot be
said about the neighboring countries -Turkey, Azerbaijan and Georgia,
" Mr Voskanyan said.
