  1. The whole Armenian communities in the Middle East are in a state of anxiety. We well know Armenia is a poor country but I wonder why the Armenian millionaires and billionaires are not helping to relocate the said Armenians to their fatherland (Armenia)?

    • Because most of the Armenian millionaires and billionaires, like other Armenians, do not care. Those few millionaires and very very few billionaires who care cannot take that huge financial burden to relocate all or majority of Armenians to Armenia and support them in Armenia until they settle.

      We should not rely on millionaires and billionaires. If only every Armenian could donate just $10-50 per months we would not even need help from millionaires and billionaires.

  2. Dear MSK,
    You are damned right(please forgiv e my French).In this respect do please read my articles lodged in …www.armeniannews.info…..clcik on Users articles.
    It is one or two of these that specifically deal with REPATRIATION.However, before we can just dream of that, we have to RE ORGANIZE and that is mentioned thoroughly in my other articles therein contained.I have submitted these to our ¨dear¨ press,whether in Diasporac or Homeland..none so far publishes them.Thence I landed with those nice youngmen who run the above web site and they gladly host my articles.I ´m hoping they will soon be in a position to host my articles in armenian aswell.
    Yes,we do need to relocate (let´s not dream too much) all but at the very least one TENTH OF OUR Diaspora population.Those that are recent immigrants mainly and in Russia,EU and US, But also near half or more from the Middle Eastern restful countries.Latter face danger not just assimilation or otherwise.
