During the last five years, PM Nikol Pashinyan and his predecessor Serzh Sargsyan made very firm and ambitious statements on the issue of demographic growth in Armenia, referring to what the latter described as an ‘unacceptable’ demographic situation for the previous 25 years. Former PM Serzh Sargsyan stated that efforts towards improving demographic growth should result in a minimum population of four million people by the year 2040, while current PM Nikol Pashinyan aimed at a population of five million people by the year 2050. This article will summarize the impact the war may have on these objectives while critically reviewing publicly available information regarding ongoing efforts.

This is a worldwide phenomenon. Women have had enough and are sending the strongest possible message to the arms dealers and political leaders of the world – they do not feel it is a safe one to bring children into. It’s just been war after war after war.
Serouj, thank you.
