"From last year we grant certificates of settlers to the inhabitants
of the region of Kashatagh. And we will try to improve the quality
of life of the inhabitants of the region," said the head of the
Department of Migration, Refugees and Resettlement Serge Amirkhanyan
in an interview with KarabakhOpen.com.

The head of the department confessed that the population of Kashatagh
was 13 thousand but recently most settlers have left the region
because they were dissatisfied with life there.

Serge Amirkhanyan says this year the focus will be on Kashatagh. The
inhabitants will get certificates of settlers and privileges. Serge
Amirkhanyan said the settlers have reconstructed about 3500-3800
houses and apartments but they lack conveniences. "We first need
to provide normal conditions to go on to think about resettlement,"
said the head of the Department.

He said last year only 5 families migrated to Kashatagh, the members
of 96 families were granted status of settlers.
