serious work for a short time, Arpi Vartanian, regional director of the
Armenian Assembly of America (AAA) told journalists in Yerevan today.

"Overall activities of the Diaspora ministry can be assessed as
positive. Recently the diaspora minister Hranush Hakobyan met a group
of students arrived from abroad, such meetings are very important
for the Armenia-Diaspora cooperation", Arpi Vartanian said.

program, carried out by the ministry. "This program enables Armenians
