    The average age of women and men at marriage has risen by 3 and 7 years
    in Armenia to reach 25 and 29 respectively, the head of Sociometer
    center for sociological studies stated.

    As Aharon Adibekyan told a news conference in Yerevan, "many couples
    delay childbirth at the initial stage of marriage. Later on, however,
    they face serious fertility problems."

    The expert stressed the low birth-rate in Armenia, similarly to
    Georgia, Ukraine Europe and Latin American countries.

    In 2010, male and female birth rates in Armenia comprised 23,8 and
    20,9 thousand respectively, increasing by 1% against 2009 index.

    18 thousand marriages and 3 thousand divorces were reported in 2010.
