YEREVAN.- Both the government and Armenian citizens must create opportunities for those coming from Syria, Armenian Cause (Hay Dat) Office Chief Giro Manoyan told reporters.

Commenting on the remark there are no jobs for Syrian Armenians, Manoyan said the Diaspora Ministry told there are 500 jobs for them. As to schools, ARF Dashanktsutyun member said the experts are undergoing trainings to provide education in Western Armenian.

Sixty families have already applied to the Diaspora Ministry and got necessary assistance.

“One should not think that all Syrian Armenians want to come here, while we are doing nothing to help,” he emphasized.
