Diaspora waited for Dual Citizenship law a long timeMarch 27, 2007 - 16:43 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The Diaspora waited for the law of Dual Citizenship in Armenia a long time," Chairman of the European Armenian Federation Hilda Tchoboyan told at the interview to PanARMENIAN.Net "When Armenia's independence was declared a lot of us hoped that the Armenia government will recognize us as his own citizens. Unfortunately it did not happen. The Diaspora was very upset. And now we got moral satisfaction, we have a motherland where we can come and do everything possible for her prosperity," she underlined. Tchoboyan also thinks it is natural the fear of "local" citizens of the RA that the Diaspora will take the power into its hands, elect the president and so on. "We are not going to do that, the law clearly indicates our rights and obligations. I consider the adoption of this law as very important, if even it is a bit belated step," the EAFJD Chairman underscored. ![]() ![]() Grigoryan added that the situation around the world and particularly in the region is very difficult.
