In the aftermath of Georgian-Ossetian conflict 108 Georgians and
9 Ossetians have applied to the Republic of Armenia to get a right
to be defended by our country and to live here. Currently they are
under the defense of Armenia and they’ll receive a right to live in
the country, said Gagik Eganyan, the head of migration department of
the Ministry of Urban Development in a press conference today.
"We though the number of people who want to live in Armenia would
be higher but, fortunately, the military activities were stopped and
many of them stayed in their countries," said Mr. Eganyan.
According to him in those days many wanted to be transferred under
the defense of Armenia but after the military activities were stopped
they returned to their countries.
