YEREVAN. – Several dozens of Armenian citizens have received visas, in one month, for a trip to Brazil, and about a dozen of them are various officials, Haykakan Zhamanak daily reported.

“The Brazilian Embassy to Armenia informed this to us when we had asked how many Armenian citizens have traveled to Brazil to be present for the football World Cup, and how many of them are officials. [But] the embassy did not give the names of the officials. 

“[And] to the query as to whether the officials were MPs, or various officials, the [embassy] employee responded: ‘Various officials; about a dozen,’” Haykakan Zhamanak wrote.
