    Yezidis emigrated to Turkey expressed a desire to be moved to Armenia

    September 2 2014


    The 100 thousand dollars provided by the Government of Armenia to
    Iraqi Yezidi refugees still has not reached the recipients. This was
    said by the Head of "Sinjar" Yezidi National Union, Boris Murazi, in
    the conversation with Aravot.am, who returned last night from the
    Turkish border, where the camps of Yezidi refugees displaced from Iraq
    are deployed. Boris Mirazi was not interested in the destiny of 100
    thousand dollars being convinced that it is on the way as it was
    transferred through the UN High Commissioner for Refugees office.
    Recall that our government assisted Yezidi after the incident when on
    August 14, thousands of Yezidis raised a big protest in front of the
    government building in protest, accusing the Government of Armenia in
    neglect. In the conversation with us, Murazi said that the Yezidi
    refugees are expressing a desire to be moved to Armenia knowing that
    Yezidis are well treated in our country, but they are unable to do it,
    as there is a road issue. Whereas the Armenian authorities had not
    proceeded the verbal appeal of the Head of "Sinjar" Union, urging to
    submit the appeal in writing. "I do not understand why, in fact, when
    submitting in writing, it will take a long time," said Mr. Mirazi. To
    our question whether there were people among these refugees who have
    relatives in Armenia, the Head of the Union said that there are no
    close relative to Yezidis in Armenia, but there are relatives of the
    same big family. Boris Mirazi and his colleagues have taken food and
    clothing to Yezidi refugees moved to Turkey. According to him, the
    Turkish authorities have provided Yezidi refugees with food, but the
    problem of shelter is still not solved, people spend overnight in the
    street. The matter, according to the Head of the Union, is about more
    than 20 thousand refugees.
