Azerbaijani politician said that at present, Armenia is facing a
serious demographic crisis.

"A significant number of people left the country (Armenia) within
a short period of time. It is a serious signal. It is impossible to
solve this problem rapidly," the Center for Political Innovation and
Technology director Mubariz Ahmadoglu said at a briefing in Trend’s
press center today.

The politician said that Armenian politicians and experts hoped
that the country will cope with this problem and the population
will increase.

"The research conducted during a year testifies that Armenia faces
depopulation. Moreover, Armenian citizens often leave Armenia,"
he said.

The politician said that financial assistance rendered to Armenia is
used for other purposes.

"Armenia delivers humanitarian aid from Europe and several countries
to increase the military budget", Ahmadoglu said.
