    YEREVAN, JUNE 2, NOYAN TAPAN. On June 2, UNICEF and Haypost released a
    new stamp dedicated to children. Part of money gained from their sale
    will be given to INICEF for spending it on children's needs. Arman
    Kirakosian, the RA Deputy Foreign Minister, said that much work has
    been done in Armenia in the direction of improving children's life,
    to which UN Children's Fund also contributed.

    A. Kirakosian said that UNICEF's Armenian office also assists
    Armenia in fulfilment of commitments assumed by Armenia, perfection
    of the respective legislative field. According to the Deputy Minister,
    UNICEF's achievements in the sphere of Armenia's health are invaluable:
    Armenia has been recognized a zone free of poliomelite, children's
    death-rate continues to reduce.

    Sheldon Yett, the Head of the UNICEF Armenian Office, said that the
    stamp costing 100 drams has been made on the basis of the picture
    of seven-year-old Eduard Shahbazian. 30 drams (0.10 cents) from each
    sold stamp will be given to UNICEF and that sum will be transferred
    to programs implemented for the purpose of reducing new-born babies
    death-rate in the country.
