ArmInfo. According to our estimates and estimates of international financial organizations, including rating ones, foreign citizens who moved to Armenia do not intend to leave in the near future. RA Minister of Economy Vahan Kerobyan stated this while answering the questions of the  parliamentarians during the session of the Parliamentary Commission on Economic Affairs.

In particular, he noted that, according to the analysis, which is  carried out on  weekly terms in the context of the movement of  immigrants, their number does not change, moreover, it even  increases.

"Now the situation is stable. And all our analyzes show that the  situation will not change in the near future," Kerobyan said.

At the same time, the minister noted that despite the dynamics of  resettlement, the Ministry continues to make efforts to increase the  priority areas outlined in the government's program. In this vein, he  mentioned the high-tech industry, tourism and a number of industries.  " We register significant progress in all these areas. Work continues  according to plan," he concluded.

It should be noted that in the period from February 2022 to March  2023, over 113 thousand citizens of the Russian Federation, Ukraine  and Belarus moved to Armenia.
