Colonel Gevorg Mheryan informed the journalists today. Mheryan also

"If the citizens are told that changing the passports will take longer,
or if they are demanded additional payments, I ask and require that
they call me immediately. My phone numbers are written on the walls
of each and every deparment", he said.
