/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Armenian-Swedish cooperation has positive impact
on Armenia’s labor market, according to the republic’s Labor Minister
Gevorg Petrosyan.

"We welcome the cooperation which helps development of efficient
strategy and resolution of employment problems," he said.

Unemployment in Armenia makes some 6.8%. Due to the anti-crisis
measures undertaken by the government of Armenia, this figure has
not increased.

"The problem is the lack of vacancies for our specialists. Presently,
the government is focused on the employment policy which will prevent
increase in unemployment rate by the end of 2009," Minister Petrosyan
said.
