    Gagik Eganyan, the head of migration department of the Ministry of
    Urban Development presented to the journalists the project confirmed
    by the Government to guarantee the return of the people from boarder
    line territories to their home places.

    Note that those are people who had to leave their houses in the
    aftermath of natural disasters, etc. The current programme covers
    only those who left their homes in the result of Azeri bombing in
    1992-1994. After the armistice has been signed in 1994, many of them
    returned to their home land, but still thousands did not.

    According to Mr. Eganyan the problems of current people have not
    been studied yet. "We wanted to know where they are living, in what
    conditions, and do they want to return to their home land," he said.

    According to the studies 26 thousands 44 people left the country and
    find place to live abroad in those years, 21 thousands 270 people
    stayed in Armenia. But still 461 of them left abroad, after 9692
    returned to Armenia and 113 of them are dead. Currently 5784 people are
    registered and only 1259 of them expressed their wish to return home.
