Already 200 Syrian Armenians have moved to Armenia after recent developments in Aleppo, Minister of Diaspora Hranush Hakobyan announced during the government session. According to her words the situation remains tense in Aleppo and the main target of the militants are the Christians. The militants destroy churches, monuments, houses. In spite of all this the majority of the residents prefer staying there and another part is moving to safer places. Residence fee is a problem for those Syrian Armenians, who have moved to Armenia and the fees must be covered by the government. Minister of Diaspora called on the executive body to provide jobs to Syrian Armenians. By the way, the government has covered the expenses of summer camp and about 300 children will spend their summer holidays at a camp.
