    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Yerevan hosted a seminar "Situation of Armenian
    migrants in Turkey". Coordinator of the Armenian-Turkish Initiatives
    of Cooperation-Eurasia Fund Artak Shakaryan informed that the studies
    were conducted in April-August of 2009.

    "According to the study, 90 per cent of Armenian migrants in Turkey
    are women. The studies show that the figure announced by the Turkish
    leadership (50 to 80 thousand Armenian migrants) is untrue," Artak
    Shakaryan said.

    According to the survey, around 6000 Armenians emigrated from Armenia
    to Turkey between 2000 and 2007. According to the study, the income
    of Armenian migrants is ranging from $100 to $600 per month.

    Participants stressed, children of Armenian migrants are deprived
    of the opportunity to attend Armenian schools, since they are not
    citizens of Turkey.

    Regarding the relationship between the Armenian migrants and
    representatives of the Armenian community of Istanbul, studies show
    that most of Istanbul-based Armenians provide migrants with work.
